Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru prediction

An important match for both sides is upon us with Punjab Kings running out of time to reverse this terrible run of results which is putting their play-off place in significant jeopardy. Playing games in Dharamsala has not worked in their favour with the most recent two of their last five straight defeats coming on that ground, which doesn’t bode well ahead of RCB’s visit.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru have bounced back from their own recent slump and back-to-back victories stands them in good stead ahead of this match. They are taking on a team who can’t get anything to go their way at present and in IPL cricket, it can prove very hard to turn things around when it’s got to the stage that it has with Punjab Kings right now. Therefore, back RCB to grab the points.
