The Lucknow Super Giants will play their final group stage game of this year's Indian Premier League at home against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
Today's match at Lucknow's Ekana cricket stadium will be Match 70 of IPL 2025 and the final fixture before we move on to the playoffs.
While LSG have only pride to play for, RCB will be eager for a win, as that would guarantee a finish in the top two.
This would mean the Bengaluru franchise would play the more forgiving Qualifier 1 versus the Punjab Kings and avoid the Eliminator encounter against five-time champions the Mumbai Indians.
LSG and RCB have met each other five times in the IPL and the Bengaluru team have one more win against the hosts.
