The upcoming IPL 2024 match at the Ekana Sports City stadium in Lucknow on Sunday will witness a clash between Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) and Gujarat Titans (GT). LSG arrives with momentum following their recent triumph over Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), whereas GT seeks redemption after facing defeat at the hands of Punjab Kings. Let us check out the predictions for epic LSG vs GT Clash.
Lucknow Super Giants vs Gujarat Giants Preview
Having played three IPL 2024 matches, Lucknow Super Giants boast a record of two victories and a solitary loss. In their previous outing, they secured a convincing 28-run win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru, powered by Quinton de Kock’s 81 off 56 and Nicholas Pooran’s unbeaten 40 off 21. Mayank Yadav’s stellar bowling performance, claiming 3 for 14, ensured a comfortable victory for LSG.
On the other hand, Gujarat Titans have won and lost two matches each in the ongoing season. Despite Shubman Gill’s impressive unbeaten 89 off 48 in their last game, GT suffered a three-wicket defeat against Punjab Kings. Noor Ahmad’s 2 for 32 wasn’t enough to prevent the loss as the rest of the bowling attack faltered.
LSG vs GT Prediction
According to Parimatch, the in-form LSG are the favourites to clinch victory, with odds of 1.85 for KL Rahul and his team. Playing in familiar home conditions further strengthens LSG’s prospects. However, GT is not far behind, with odds of 1.97 for Shubman Gill and his team.
Both teams boast strong top-order batters, but GT faces uncertainty in the middle order with Vijay Shanker and Omarzai. In contrast, LSG possesses a more balanced lineup with reliable support for their openers, including De Kock, Rahul, Padikkal, Pooran, Badoni, Stoinis, and Krunal Pandya.
