THE LOWDOWN

DELHI CAPITALS

  • Delhi Capitals are currently two points behind the pace in the race to finish inside the top four, which makes victory here absolutely essential with just three games remaining for them, including this one.
  • Such an emphatic defeat at the hands of Kolkata Knight Riders most recently served as a blow to Delhi, especially after winning their last two games prior to the loss, which saw KKR chase down 154 comfortably.

RAJASTHAN ROYALS

  • Rajasthan Royals came out the wrong end of a barnstorming match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, losing by one run in what is only their second loss of the campaign.
  • With eight wins from ten fixtures, the Royals are all but guaranteed a play-off place but they face a battle to finish as league winners due to KKR having pulled level on points with them.

THE PREDICTION

The expectation is that Rajasthan Royals will bounce back strongly, but a trip to Delhi serves as a stiff challenge with the Capitals fighting hard to keep their play-off hopes alive. The big worry from a Delhi Capitals perspective is their bowling attack, it could be vulnerable against this Rajasthan Royals top order, whereas the visiting bowling unit looks a lot more stable. With that in mind, backing Rajasthan to come out on top looks the smart move.

TIP: RAJASTHAN ROYALS TO WIN
