LSG vs RCB Dream11 Prediction Indian Premier League Match No-70

Before the playoffs begin, there’s a small matter of the final league game of the season, which will be played between Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Tuesday evening. LSG are out of the playoff picture, but RCB, who are in the top four, still have something to play for.

After Gujarat Titans’ two straight defeats, the door has opened for RCB to finish in the top two. The other league game is between Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Mumbai Indians (MI) on Monday. One team will definitely win that match—unless it’s a washout—which means both PBKS and MI could move above GT in the standings. That leaves RCB with a chance to get to 19 points and give themselves two shots at reaching the mega IPL final.

LSG vs RCB Dream11 Prediction: Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

Pitch Report: The Ekana Cricket Stadium is known for its bowler-friendly conditions, particularly favouring spinners. The average score at this venue in IPL matches is around 169, suggesting a moderate-scoring game. The pitch is expected to have some grass covering, which will assist the pacers in making early inroads. The match will be played on a red-soil surface, providing better bounce and carry for the fast bowlers.

In the last match at this venue, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) posted a formidable total of 231/6. RCB were bundled out for 189 in 19.5 overs, despite being well-placed at 120/1 in 10.3 overs. This collapse underscores the importance of maintaining momentum and adapting to the pitch conditions.
