Mumbai Indians vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru prediction

Mumbai Indians are coming off the back of two straight losses, both of which have come on the road. However, their only win of the season so far came at Wankhede Stadium, the location for this game when they chased down a whopping 221 against Kolkata Knight Riders. That bodes well for Mumbai, who need to win their home games to stand a chance of success this season.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru are formidable opposition, but were beaten on the road last time out and could be vulnerable away from home. They failed to defend 201 and that doesn’t bode well heading into a match on an excellent batting surface against a team who knows how to pile up runs on it. Therefore, back Mumbai Indians to subject RCB to consecutive losses.
