Rajasthan Royals and Punjab Kings will face off against each other at ACA Cricket Stadium in Guwahati, which is the second home ground of RR. This match is a crucial one from Rajasthan’s perspective, as they have lost the last three matches on the trot and are now fighting for the second spot for qualification advantages in the playoffs. On the other hand, Punjab comes to this match with a nothing-to-lose attitude as they are eliminated from the IPL 2024 and are sitting at the bottom of the points table. It will be interesting to see who will win this match. Will it be Rajasthan solidifying their top two chances, or will it be Punjab becoming the party pooper for RR?
Match Prediction: RR vs. PBKS Match No. 65 IPL 2024 (15 May 2024)
Considering the form of both teams this season, it is very easy to predict RR’s win, but the Punjab Kings are a dangerous team that can ruin any team on their day. Also, Rajasthan is low on confidence, as they are the favorites to win the last three matches that they have lost on the trot. So from recent forms and previous data’s point of view, it’s not easy to predict who will win today’s IPL match. But if you count on the recent season’s performance, Rajasthan might pass this Punjab test.
