Royal Challengers are at the bottom of the points table with 8 points in 12 matches; 4 wins and 8 loss. While Rajasthan Royals are 7th on the points table with 10 points in 12 matches; 5 wins and 7 loss.

Royal Challengers Bangalore are coming with a loss against Delhi Capitals but they are in great momentum, after losing the first 6 matches in a row they have won 4 of the later 6 matches. On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals also are on great momentum, coming with 3 straight wins; have won 4 of the last 5 matches.

Currently, both teams have the chance to qualify for playoffs. Royal Challengers Bangalore are banking on the remote possibility of the fourth team qualifying with twelve points. As no team have ever qualified with 12 points till now but mathematically Royal Challengers Bangalore still have chances. RCB need to win both matches with great margins to improve their net run-rate and need other match results to go their way. Rajasthan Royals also need to win both matches and have to wait for other match results to go in their way.

Royal Challengers Bangalore and Rajasthan Royals have played 6 matches against each other at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru; out of the six Rajasthan Royals won 2 matches and Royal Challengers Bangalore have won 4 matches.

Rajasthan Royals are the only side against whom Virat Kohli averages less than 25 (21.38) and has an SR of less than 120 (101.48). He has scored only 2 half-centuries in 17 innings against RR. Virat Kohli needs  21 runs to complete 4000 runs as captain in IPL.

Shreyas Gopal has taken nine wickets in three games against RCB at an average of 5.56. He was the Man of the Match in the last two matches between the two teams.

Rajasthan Royals have a poor record when they’ve batted first this season. Rajasthan Royals are the only team to have not won a match batting first this season and are winless in the four matches when they’ve had the opportunity of setting a target; won 5 of the 8 matches when batted second.

In our prediction, Royal Challengers Bangalore are likely to win this match.
