Rajasthan Royals vs Delhi Capitals: Prediction for match | Odds2win

Rajasthan royals have a more balanced side between the two, at least on paper. Delhi Capitals have come off a massive hit against Chennai Super Kings in their previous game and could lose confidence. The likes of Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson and Yuzi Chahal are in excellent form and won't be easy to handle.

Rajasthan Royals

Compared to the Delhi Capitals, the Rajasthan Royals are significantly better placed in the race for the playoffs, but still don't want to take it lightly. Another win in any of the three remaining games should be enough to see them through, assuming they don't completely fill it up in their other games. They've done pretty well in the tournament so far, but they'll have some concerns ahead of this upcoming game.

The Rajasthan Royals' main problem in this tournament was finishing with the racquet, something that depended too much on Shimron Hetmyer. With Hetmyer unavailable in this upcoming game, it's up to Jos Buttler and Sanju Samson to improve their game up front. Also, they would need someone to replace Hetmyer and play a similar role and it's not going to be easy. We expect the Rajasthan Royals to place Rassie van der Dussen in middle order and also bring in James Neesham in place of Devdutt Padikkal to bolster the power play in their batting order.

As it currently stands in the points table, the Royals are in third place with seven wins in eleven games. They have 14 points to their name and an excellent net run rate of .326. A win here will draw them level with the Lucknow Super Giants and bring them one step closer to top-2 finishes. If they can play to their potential in this upcoming game, it will be a big challenge for the Capitals to keep them calm.

Delhi Capitals

Delhi Capitals' campaign was the definition of inconsistency. They had to deal with several setbacks both on and off the field, but their on-field performance didn't help their cause either. They have been so inconsistent in the tournament so far that they have yet to win two games in a row. Another case emerged from their camp ahead of the last game and it will be interesting to see if they can field their first-choice XI in this upcoming game.

The Capitals came off a 91-run drubbing in their last game against the Chennai Super Kings. The good thing for them, however, is that they still have their destiny pretty much in their own hands and want to keep it that way by winning this upcoming competition.

As it currently stands in the points table, the Delhi Capitals are in fifth place with five wins from eleven games. However, their decent 0.15 net run rate, the best among the bottom six teams, gives them a small edge when it comes to qualifying scenarios.

On paper, the Delhi Capitals are as good a side as any, but they were pretty bad tactically and in terms of performance. They've been pretty fickle at the top, even since Prithvi Shaw was unavailable and will need someone to step up in this upcoming game. Also, the likes of Mitchell Marsh and Rishabh Pant played some excellent cameos that weren't enough to get them over the line. On the bowling front, too, they were unable to handle things under the pump.

All in all Delhi Capitals have a decent side on paper but need to get their execution fixed. If they are able to do that, they will be a very difficult team in the tournament. More today ipl match betting can be obtained from the link provided.
