Rajasthan Royals
Rajasthan Royals slipped to a second position in the league table after a big defeat against league leaders Gujarat Titans in the last match. GT scored a big total of 192 runs while batting first and then restricted Rajasthan Royals to just 155 runs in the 20 overs. Jos Buttler scored 54 runs off just 24 balls but the likes of Devdutt Padikkal and Sanju Samson failed again.
Kiwi pacer Trent Boult missed the last match due to a minor knack just before the game but spotted training yesterday. He is expected to replace his national-teammate James Neesham to lead the pace bowling attack. We can expect Yashasvi Jaiswal returning to the starting eleven in the place of struggling South African star Rassie van der Dussen.

Kolkata Knight Riders
Kolkata Knight Riders lost their 3rd match of the season after a big defeat against in-form Sunrisers Hyderabad in the last match. KKR put a respectable 175 runs on the scoreboard while batting first, thanks to the fifty from Nitish Rana and a quick 49 runs knock from Andre Russell. But bowlers failed again to defend this total and took just 3 wickets to concede a 7 wickets defeat.
KKR are now placed in 6th position in the league table with 6 points from the opening 6 matches. Aaron Finch made his debut in the last match but failed to make an impact. We are expecting a similar playing eleven for this fixture with another chance for the Australian skipper.

Pitch Report
Brabourne pitch is excellent for the batters in any format of the game and this season is no different. Teams have scored more than average runs this season which is almost 180 runs. Pitch is flat and there is minimum grass available, which makes it tougher for the seamers to take late wickets in the game.

Who will win the match, Today Match Prediction:
Rajasthan Royals are expected to win the match against Kolkata Knight Riders
Rajasthan Royals lost the last match against Gujarat Titans and slipped to 2nd position in the league table.

Kolkata Knight Riders lost their last two matches and now placed in 6th position before this match. Both teams won their respective fixture against each other last season but the Royals are clear favorites to win on Monday.
