KXIP vs RCB Match Prediction: It has been a roller coaster ride for Kings XI Punjab. Punjab so far has been able to win four matches and lose three in total seven matches as they will look to register their fifth win against a depleted Royal Challengers Bangalore side on Saturday.

Royals Challengers, on the other hand, are still seeking for their first win in the tournament, having lost six matches on the trot and are just one defeat away from suffering a loss against each of the seven teams this year. However, a five-day gap between their last match and the upcoming clash would have given them ample time to address all the issues that are needed to be discussed in the dressing room.

It will be interesting to see if Dale Steyn gets a game straightaway or will RCB persist with Tim Southee. Also with Chris Gayle being injured, who will Ashwin choose to have a go at the start with KL Rahul?

Pitch Conditions

KXIP vs RCB Match Prediction: The pitch at the IS Bindra stadium, Punjab is the only pitch part from Wankhede to assist seamers in the early part of the innings and spinners later in the innings. The batsmen find hard to adjust to conditions early on, but once sets the pitch becomes friendly for batting.

If we closely look at the last 3 matches played at the IS Bindra stadium, Kings XI Punjab has all of them, the average score on the pitch is 180. The team winning the toss should field first and exploit the bowling conditions early on.
