LSG vs RCB Dream11 Prediction
The LSG vs RCB Dream11 prediction clearly favors RCB this time. RCB is almost reaching the playoffs. But to reach the playoffs, LSG has to win the remainder of the matches.
Their overall head-to-head record favors RCB. However, PBKS was on a winning streak before this match. At Ekana Stadium, RCB also has the advantages. In the last five LSG vs RCB encounters, RCB had an edge.
Currently, momentum is in RCB’s favor. They won their previous match against CSK at their home. This year LSG played 5 matches at Ekana Stadium. They won 2 out of 5 games there. It clearly shows they do not have any statistical advantage from anywhere. But in cricket anything is possible.
