LSG vs KKR Match Prediction: who will win?
The upsurge in Lucknow’s fortunes are mainly due to the great form shown by Captain KL Rahul and the power hitting of Marcus Stoinis. Moving the big Aussie up the order has been a masterstroke as he won a match almost on his own with an unbeaten century. KKR have also been blessed to have arguably the best opening partnership in Sunil Narine and Phil Salt. Both players have been scoring plenty of runs with their scores coming at an exceptional rate of almost two runs per ball. If Lucknow are to continue with their winning ways, they will need to break this partnership early.
Lucknow Super Giants vs Kolkata Knight Riders Toss Prediction
Both these teams would prefer to chase a score as it is difficult to defend a score on this ground. The team winning the toss should look to bowl first especially as there could be dew around in the second innings.
Lucknow Super Giants vs Kolkata Knight RidersTop Run Scorer Prediction

Lucknow Super Giants vs Kolkata Knight RidersTop Wicket Taker Prediction
We are backing Ravi Bishnoi to be the top wicket taker in this match.
Lucknow Super Giants vs Kolkata Knight RidersBetting Preview
One of the major advantages KKR has over most teams is that they have two genuine all rounders in West Indians Sunil Narine and Andre Russell. Both players are capable of winning games either with bat or ball. They also help with the balance of the team as they can play an extra bowler or batsmen. Lucknow have improved their bowling in recent matches with Naveen-ul-Ha and Ravi Bishnoi proving miserly with the ball. If Yadav is fit then there is every possibility of them upsetting Kolkata, provided they can pick up early wickets.
Best Tips for LSG vs KKR
KKR to have the highest opening partnership at odds of 1.98

Total wickets to be under 12.5 at odds of 1.80.
