Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings Predictions

The Super Giants will be motivated to hit the top of the table with a big win over the Super Kings. The visitors have lost five in a row after winning their opening game and I can't see them being a match for the Super Giants.

Lucknow Super Giants’ Nicholas Pooran has scored 70, 44, 87* & 61 in his last 5 innings.
Lucknow Super Giants’ Mitchell Marsh has scored 72, 52, 60 & 81 in his last 5 innings.
Chennai Super Kings’ Devon Conway has scored 30 & 69 in his last 4 innings.
Chennai Super Kings’ Vijay Shankar has scored 69* & 29 in his last 2 completed innings.

Head-to-Head

The Super Giants have won three of their last four completed matches against the Super Kings.

Lucknow Super Giants Form

The Super Giants made it three wins in a row when they beat the Gujarat Titans by wickets.

The Titans got off to a flying start, reaching 120/0 after 12 overs. Ravi Bishnoi (2/36) helped pin them back to 127/3 in two overs. The Titans batters couldn’t maintain their fast start, ending on 186/4 off their 20 overs.

Aiden Markram (58 off 31 balls) and Nicholas Pooran (61 off 34) battered the Titans attack, setting up a six wicket win with three balls to spare.

Lucknow Super Giants Team News

The Super Giants are in incredible form with the bat, and they are sure to play both spinners (rookie Digvesh Rathi and Ravi Bishnoi) as the Super Kings have lost the most wickets to spin this season.

Chennai Super Kings Form

The Super Kings’ poor form continued with their eight-wicket loss to the Knight Riders.

Seven Super Kings batters scored four or less as their innings imploded. They ended their 20 overs on 103/9, with only Vijay Shankar (29) and Shivam Dube (31*) adding value with the bat.

Sunil Narine (44 of 18 balls) blasted his side to an eight-wicket win off 10.1 overs. Noor Ahmad (1/8, econ 4.00) was the best of the Super Kings bowlers.

Chennai Super Kings Team News

The Super Kings’ faltering batting is a major factor in their horror run of losses, with spin proving to be their Achilles heel. They will look to knock over a few Super Giants wickets in the powerplay, which is where they have been incredibly strong this season.

Verdict

Lucknow Super Giants v Chennai Super Kings - T20

I am backing Lucknow Super Giants to win. I am also backing Nicholas Pooran to top score for Lucknow Super Giants.

Devon Conway is a good bet to top score for the Chennai Super Kings.
