GT vs RR Probable Winners:

Both the Gujarat Titans and the Rajasthan Royals are coming off big wins, so momentum will not be an issue. Rajasthan has improved significantly after an unstable start, but its batting depth remains a concern. If the top order fails to deliver, things could quickly spiral out of control. Gujarat, on the other hand, appears to be more settled overall. They benefit even more from playing at home. That being said, IPL 2025 has already thrown up plenty of surprises, with supposed underdogs regularly defeating favorites, and if Rajasthan's top order clicks, they'll have a good chance. Despite this, Gujarat's better balance makes it the safer choice. Considering the team combination, Gujarat Titans is expected to win this match.
