RCB vs GT Probable Winners:

Both Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Gujarat Titans enter this game on the heels of victories, eager to improve on their performances. RCB has been the most unexpected outcome of the tournament so far, with dominant performances in both of their away matches. They'll feel even more confident now that they're back on their home turf. However, the Gujarat Titans will not make it easy. Their top order is risky, and their bowling attack is balanced. This should be an intense contest that could go either way, but in this high-scoring pitch, RCB's potent batting lineup could tip the balance in their favor. Considering the team combination, Royal Challengers Bengaluru is expected to win this match.
