LSG vs RCB Pitch Report:
The Eden Gardens pitch is quite suitable for batters as the ball comes nicely on to the bat, and the batters find it easy to hit big shots. While most of the IPL matches won here were by the chasing team because the pitch at Eden Gardens evolve even better to bat on in the 2nd innings. During the initial overs the pitch might help fast bowlers and will help spinners in the middle overs as well.
LSG Vs RCB Probable Playing XI:
Lucknow Super Giants:
KL Rahul (c), Quinton de Kock (w), Evin Lewis, Deepak Hooda, Manan Vohra, Marcus Stoinis, Jason Holder, Krishnappa Gowtham, Mohsin Khan, Avesh Khan, Ravi Bishnoi
Royal Challengers Bangalore:
Virat Kohli, FAF du Plessis, Rajat Patidar, Glenn Maxwell, Dinesh Karthik, Mahipal Lomror, Shahbaz Ahmed, Wanindu Hasaranga, Harshal Patel, Josh Hazlewood, Mohammed Siraj
Power Play scores:
Both LSG openers are playing destructive cricket from the last couple of games, and if they keep their momentum in the eliminator game as well, they might post 55-60 during the power play overs, a lot will depend on Quinton de Kock-KL Rahul opening stand though. For RCB, it is hard to say anything as only FAF du Plessis is reliable, although Virat has played a good knock of 73 runs in RCB’s last league match and helped his team win the game, and if they both play full 6 overs then RCB might witness a solid start as both are destructive batters and can score 45-50 in the first six overs.
Death Over scores:
Both teams have strong power hitters in their line-ups, so the teams will try to score as many runs as possible. And we can assume that LSG might put 45-50 on board in the final four overs. While RCB could post 40-45 in the death overs.
Overall scores:
The openers of Lucknow Super Giants are not just in good but destructive form. In their last league game both the openers created history by adding 210 for the first wicket and both returned unbeaten to pavilion after 20 overs. So we might expect a similar show from them and LSG can post 190-200 runs in 20 overs. Royal Challengers Bangalore are in good touch, and if they continue to play like they played in the last league game, then the Bangalore side can reach 180-190, if they batted first.
Who will win Today’s match between LSG Vs RCB?
LSG has impressed everyone with their performance in the league stage. Their batters are scoring quick runs and their bowlers too taking wickets just at the right time. However, the Bangalore side mainly rely FAF du Plessis and Dinesh Karthik, though Virat Kohli and Glenn Maxwell showed great signs of returning in form in the last match when both scored handy runs for their team. The main concern for RCB is their bowling, and with this reputation it will be tough for RCB to beat the mighty LSG. As far as the winner of eliminator match is concerned LSG has a better chance.

LSG vs RCB Today Dream Prediction:
The winner of this match will face the losing team of qualifier 2 on May 27 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. While the side who lose this game will straightaway get eliminated. On paper LSG has a slight edge over the RCB side. But, considering RCB’s last game performance then it will tough to predict. Overall, it will be a high scoring bonanza for sure and both teams have great batters in their line-ups who hold the ability to smash monstrous hits all over the ground.
