Chennai Super Kings will look to extend their winning sequence to remain in the hunt for a playoffs spot in the 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL) when they take on Lucknow Super Giants on Friday at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. This match between the 10th-placed LSG and the 5th-placed CSK is likely to see the visitors continue their winning momentum, and our prediction is a win for Chennai.
With six points (W3, L8), LSG are stuck at the bottom of the points tally and are out of the playoff race. Chennai have 12 points (W6, L5) and have four teams above them after Tuesday’s match.
Lucknow were beaten by Chennai by five wickets on Sunday at the Chepauk Stadium, ruling them out of the top four race. They have lost seven of their last eight games, including one via Super Over.
The problem lies with their batting, with only one batter aggregating more than 260 runs – Mitchell Marsh (377 runs), although Prince Yadav has been the find of the season (16 wickets).
Chennai’s win in the reverse fixture on Sunday was their third in a row, boosting their play-off chances. They have also struggled for batting supremacy, with only Sanju Samson (430 runs) among the 300+ run club. Among the bowlers, Anshul Kamboj (19 wickets) and Jamie Overton (14 wickets) have been exceptional.
