Lucknow Super Giants vs Mumbai Indians Predictions

The Super Giants have won five of their nine matches, putting them level on 10 points with four other teams. Mumbai’s poor start looked to be behind them after winning three out of four matches, but they have now lost three of their last four matches to slip to ninth on the table.

Mumbai Indians’ Tilak Varma has scored 31, 34*, 65 & 63 in his last 4 innings.
Mumbai Indians’ Suryakumar Yadav scored 78 off 53 balls in the win over Punjab Kings.
Lucknow Super Giants’ KL Rahul has scored 39, 39, 82 & 76 in his last 5 innings.
Lucknow Super Giants’ Marcus Stoinis hit six sixes in his 124* off 63 balls in the win over CSK.

Head-to-Head

The two teams have met four times, with the Super Giants winning the first three matches, while Mumbai won the last match.

Lucknow Super Giants Form

After beating Chennai Super Kings in a double-header, the Super Giants came down to earth with a seven-wicket loss to the Rajasthan Royals.

The Super Giants racked up 196/5 off their 20 overs, with KL Rahul (76 off 48 balls) and Deepak Hooda (50 off 31 balls) starring with the bat.

Despite superb bowling from Krunal Pandya (0/24, econ 6.00), the Royals hit their target off 19 overs for the loss of just three wickets.

Lucknow Super Giants Team News

The Super Giants are in good form but might look to freshen up their bowling attack.

Mumbai Indians Form

After bouncing back with a win over the Punjab Kings, Mumbai lost to Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals to suffer three losses from their last four matches.

Delhi Capitals hammered Mumbai for 257/4 off their 20 overs, the ninth-highest score in IPL history. Jasprit Bumrah (1/35, econ 8.75) fared the best with the ball for Mumbai.

Mumbai chased well but fell 10 runs short of their target, despite hitting the 12th-highest score in IPL history. Tilak Varma top-scored with 63 off 32 balls (four fours, four sixes).

Mumbai Indians Team News

The side is playing well but luck has been against them, so they are likely to stick with the current starting XI.

Verdict

Lucknow Super Giants v Mumbai Indians

I am backing Mumbai Indians to win. I am also backing Tilak Varma to top score for Mumbai Indians.

KL Rahul is a good bet to top score for the Lucknow Super Giants.
