Delhi Capitals vs Kolkata Knight Riders prediction

Could Kolkata Knight Riders be the team who makes that late push for the play-offs and breaks in late on with all the momentum in their favour? They certainly have the opportunity following three straight wins after having previously not won any of their first six league stage matches. Their most recent fixture saw KKR get the better of Sunrisers Hyderabad on the road, chasing down 166 with seven wickets and ten balls to spare.

Delhi Capitals’ lack of cutting edge with the ball cost them against Chennai Super Kings earlier in the week in an eight-wicket defeat and they’ve now lost four of their most recent five games. That doesn’t bode well for them ahead of this battle when taking into account the depth of Kolkata’s batting line-up. With form in their favour, back the visitors to beat out Delhi.
