Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Delhi Capitals prediction

The Royal Challengers Bengaluru come into this one on the back of beginning their season with four victories and a defeat in their opening five matches. They defeated Lucknow Super Giants by five wickets the other day with a good knock from Virat Kohli.

They now face a Delhi Capitals side that began with back-to-back victories before back-to-back defeats, succumbing to a high-scoring 23-run loss to the Chennai Super Kings the other day, despite a 38-ball 60 from Trustan Stubbs.

The Capitals are a dangerous side and will expect to go deep into this competition with meaning but RCB are a well oiled machine at the moment, and they remain favourites.
