Lucknow Super Giants vs Kolkata Knight Riders Prediction & Betting Tips - Indian Premier League |
by Devesh Jaganath | in Indian Premier League Prediction
The Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders will meet in match 52 of the 2024 Indian Premier League on Sunday afternoon. The hosts are third in the league standings, while the visitors are second. This is a huge match in the race for playoff spots and the winner here will almost certainly feature in the knockout stages. The Lucknow Super Giants pushed up to third place with 12 points by beating the Mumbai Indians in their last match by four wickets and four balls to spare. Marcus Stonis played another solid innings, scoring 62(45), leading the side to a low-scoring victory, chasing down 144. Mohsin Khan took 2/36 with the ball, while Stoinis also picked a wicket for 19 runs in three overs. LSG’s major strength in this year’s competition has been their batting lineup, which will be crucial here against the high-scoring Knight Riders. KL Rahul is currently in fifth place in the orange cap standings, while none of the Super Giants’ bowlers are on the top ten wicket-takers list.
Meanwhile, the Kolkata Knight Riders are enjoying a very impressive IPL season and head into this match fresh off a gritty victory over the Mumbai Indians on Friday evening. After a very poor start against Mumbai, which saw them reduced to 57/5, Venkatesh Iyer and Manish Pandey got together to put on a crucial 83-run partnership to help the side post a defendable 169. Iyer scored 70(52 and Pandey made 42(31) while no other batsman managed more than 15 runs in the innings. The bowling lineup came up big for the Knight Riders, with Mitchell Starc picking up an incredible 4/33, while Chakaravarthy, Narine, and Russell all took two wickets apiece to contain MI to just 145, giving them a 24-run victory. That result and the quick turnaround time will help them carry momentum into this match, while LSG last played almost a week ago.
