The 54th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) will be played between Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders on May 5 (Sunday). The clash is set to take place at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow and will commence at 7:30 PM IST. This is a face-off between two teams in top four and both sides will be keen on getting closer to the playoff qualification.
LSG are currently at the third place and are coming into this encounter after beating Mumbai Indians by four wickets. They have 12 points after 10 matches with six wins and four losses.
KKR, meanwhile, will be looking to strengthen their second position in the table having also beaten Mumbai Indians in their previous encounter. Another win can more or less also seal their place in the playoffs.
We will now continue with the analysis of both teams in action and also provide you with the match prediction:
LSG are playing this match after a decent break of four days and are on a decent run at the moment with three wins in four matches. Their skipper KL Rahul, Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran have done well with the bat off late while the bowling attack filled with Indian players has done enough to keep the opposition at bay. LSG are playing their last home game of the season and will be keen on bidding adieu to Lucknow with two more points.
KL Rahul is the man for LSG especially on their home ground. Opening the innings, Rahul has done well this season amassing 406 runs in 10 matches at a strike-rate of 142.95 and an average of 40.6.
He has also scored three fifties and will be looking to add more runs to the tally against KKR. A good outing for Rahul can certainly seal two more points for the hosts.

Mohsin Khan might not have played all the matches of the season due to injury but even then he is the second highest wicket-taker of his side.
In seven matches so far, the left-arm pacer has accounted for nine scalps at an average of 31.44 and an economy of 10.10 which might seem a tad too high but Mohsin is a wicket-taking opting and LSG would want him to add more to his tally.

Kolkata Knight Riders are now looking a complete team as they have players firing on all guns now. Despite being 60/5 at one stage, KKR manage to win against MI at the Wankhede Stadium after 12 long years.
Sunil Narine, Varun Chakaravarthy and Mitchell Starc returning to their best form will only bode well for the team in last leg of the league stage. With seven wins in 10 matches so far, KKR are ever so close to making it to the playoffs this time.
Phil Salt smashed a brilliant 89 last time these two teams faced each other. The KKR opener has been brilliant to say the least for the Knight Riders this season. He is their leading run-getting with 397 runs to his name at a strike rate of 180.45 and an average of 44.11.
Salt has smashed 45 fours and 22 sixes so far and would love to hit more boundaries in the upcoming game against LSG.
Top Batter Stats - Recent Matches
Sunil Narine returned to his best in terms of picking wickets in the last game. Even if there is little assistance from the surface, Narine becomes unplayable thanks to his variations.
He is the joint-leading wicket-taker for KKR having picked up 13 wickets so far at an average of 20.69 and an economy of 6.72. Another miserly spell from him with a couple of wickets will put KKR in a strong position against LSG.

The betting tips provided above will be helpful for the cricket fans in order to guess the player of the match award winner correctly.
Sunil Narine is the in-form batter for KKR at the top of the order scoring 380 runs and he has also picked 13 wickets so far which makes him the prime candidate to win the man of the match award.
Our toss prediction today for the massive clash between LSG and KKR is that the team winning the toss to bowl first. Four out of six matches played in Lucknow are won by teams bowling first and for the same reason, the team winning the toss will bowl first.
This is the last match of the season at the Ekana cricket stadium in Lucknow. Last four matches played at the venue have been won by sides bowling first and the trend is likely to continue. Dew is likely to play a bit of a role later in the evening as well.
The best betting odds will be in balance at the start of the match. Meanwhile, the weather in Lucknow on Sunday is expected to be clear with temperature hovering around 34 Degrees Celsius during the match.
Kolkata Knight Riders are expected to win this match against Lucknow Super Giants. KKR breached the Wankhede after 12 years in their last game and will be high on confidence.
With the likes of Narine, Chakaravarthy spinning their magic and Starc also returning to his best, their bowling is much more equipped compared to LSG to overpower them in this encounter.
