Punjab Kings will look to start their home leg at Dharamsala with a winning start when they take on Lucknow Super Giants on Sunday in the IPL 2025 campaign. This is fixture #54 of the season to be played at the HPCA Stadium, and our prediction is a win for Punjab.
After 50 matches, Punjab are third with 13 points (W6, L3, NR1), and Lucknow are sixth (W5, L5) with 10 points, and both teams are in the race for playoffs.
Punjab defeated Chennai by four wickets in their last match to make it three wins out of their last four completed matches. There’s a no-result fixture against KKR thrown in the sequence, and the Kings wouldn’t want to lose momentum.
The Kings play their next three matches at this venue, starting with this one, and a win will surely lift their spirits.
Lucknow lost to Mumbai by 54 runs last time out, making it three defeats out of four, with only a narrow win over Rajasthan the aberration. While a loss here won’t rule them out of top-four contention, a win will put them in the race.
The reverse fixture was won by Punjab by eight wickets, with Prabhsimran Singh (69) and Arshdeep Singh (3 for 43) starring for the Kings.
