Rajasthan Royals vs Gujarat Titans (RR vs GT) Today Match Prediction Preview:

Rajasthan Royals are in high spirits after winning 3 of their 4 games so far. Samson-led Rajasthan side has been clearly the stand-out performers of the season and will look to consolidate their position at the top.
They are the only side in the tournament to win all matches while defending which is considered a big achievement gave the trend in the IPL this time around. Although Samson would be aware of their over-dependency on top order they could be exposed to the quality of Gujarat Titans bowlers.
While Gujarat Titans are coming off a loss against Sunrisers who gave them their first loss of the season. Although Gujarat is in a good position in the standings but things could easily go downhill if they lose against Rajasthan as well.
The slow run rate in middle overs has been their biggest problem and going hard in powerplay can be a suitable solution. Overall their team looks well balanced but a change in opening combination could be on cards after Wade’s continuous struggle.
A win here would give both teams a really strong advantage in the standings which makes this contest very enthralling. However, Rajasthan Royals will start this encounter as strong favorites given their recent record and form of key players.

RR to win
Rajasthan Royals are off to a really strong start in the tournament and their team looks really balanced going into the encounter. On the other hand, Gujarat Titans have not been that convincing and their batting lineup still looks weak. They are heavily dependent on Gill and Hardik and so far other batters have not joined the party. Looking at Rajasthan’s bowling department and firepower in top order, we think they will win this match.
