We head to the Sawai Mansingh Stadium on Saturday, when the Rajasthan Royals will be taking on Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League. RR and SRH are second and fourth in the league standings, respectively, after seven games. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Following back-to-back defeats against KKR and LSG, the Rajasthan Royals will be feeling a lot better after recording an impressive 40-run victory over Lucknow Super Giants in midweek.
Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Yashasvi Jaiswal have been the standout performers with the bat for RR, ranked fourth and sixth in the Orange Cap standings, respectively. Jofra Archer and Ravi Bishnoi have taken 11 wickets apiece.
While the Royals are favourites to win this match, they have struggled against this opponent in recent seasons, losing each of their last five encounters.
Meanwhile, the Sunrisers Hyderabad beat the Delhi Capitals by 47 runs on Tuesday and are now riding a three-match win streak, the joint-longest active winning run in the competition.
SRH have been led by Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen, who are the top two run-scorers in the IPL this season. Eshan Malinga has taken 12 scalps in seven matches.
The Sunrisers could receive a massive boost here, with Pat Cummins expected to return to the squad, while Gerald Coetzee has been brought in to replace the injured David Payne.

Our Rajasthan Royals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad Prediction
After a storming start to the season, the Rajasthan Royals suffered back-to-back defeats before bouncing back against LSG in midweek, and they will now look to rebuild momentum in the second half of the campaign.
However, the Sunrisers Hyderabad are on a roll, and much of their recent wins have been attributable to their batting lineup. Heinrich Klaasen has returned for us in every game this season, and we fancy the South African to continue his excellent form in this one. Our Rajasthan Royals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad prediction is Heinrich Klaasen over 27.5 runs.
