Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Gujarat Titans Prediction Preview:

This is a must-win game for the Bangalore franchise and they would be looking to win the game by all means. But if Mumbai Indians (MI) lose Match 69 to Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and RCB lose the game to Gujarat by a small margin, then can qualify.

Nevertheless, RCB would be looking to win the game and guarantee a place in the playoffs.

For Gujarat Titans, this is just match practice before the all-important Qualifier 1 on 23rd May 2023. Hardik Pandya and co. have already qualified for the playoffs and have been a dominant juggernaut in the ongoing IPL 2023.

RCB vs GT Today Match Prediction, IPL 2023, Who Will Win the Match?

Royal Challengers Bangalore

One of the main reasons why RCB have been able to get a few desired results in IPL 2023 is because their opening combination of Faf Du Plessis and Virat Kohli has been a strong and potent one.

The duo stitched a stellar opening stand in the previous game and it formed the backbone of the entire innings of RCB.

We predict that RCB will win this game versus Gujarat as they would be more desperate to win the game because of their qualification scenarios.
