RCB, who are playing their first match at the new home ground for two matches, come into the contest after a narrow nine-run defeat at the hands of Lucknow Supergiants (LSG), their second loss in a row. Despite back-to-back losses, they are currently fourth on the points table, thanks to a better net run rate. However, another slip-up could threaten their top four position as other teams are performing well.
On the other hand, five-time champions Mumbai Indians come into the game with renewed confidence after securing their third win of the season. They defeated Lucknow Supergiants by six wickets in a high-scoring contest. They are currently in the ninth position with six points from ten matches, and it will be a do-or-die game for the team, as if they lose against RCB, they will become the first team to be eliminated.
