Current form:

KKR last five matches: W L W W L

KKR have won three and lost two in their last five matches. But the two-times champions suffered a huge defeat of 82 runs at the hands of RCB in their previous match. KKR will need to pull up their socks in all the three departments as they have not come up with consistent performances. Andre Russell and Sunil Narine are yet to fire for KKR and it is a big concern for the team.

MI last five matches: L W W W W

MI has continued their domination in the ongoing season. The defending champions have a potent side and their players deliver on most occasions. They have the right balance in their final XI and they are coming with collective performances on the field. Thus, they will look to continue the same form.

The last time these two teams had met in the tournament, MI had thrashed KKR by a mammoth margin of 49 runs.

Head to Head: Total matches – 26, Won by MI – 20, Won by KKR – 6.
