Since the side batting second has won more number of games at the Feroz Shah Kotla in recent times, there is a good chance that the toss-winning team will elect to field first in this match. This has been a lucky venue for the Delhi Daredevils this year as far as toss is concerned which is why we predict the coin to fall in favor of the hosts.

Team News
Karun Nair will continue to lead the team as regular skipper Zaheer Khan has not yet fully recovered from his hamstring injury. No changes are expected in the side for this upcoming match.
Key Players
Sanju Samson has been the best man with the bat for the Delhi Daredevils. He has scored the most runs for his side and he will hold the key at the top of the order. Corey Anderson, Risabh Pant and Chris Morris can hit the ball a long way and they will be the ones to watch out for in the middle order. Morris will also have a major role to play with the ball. He is the leading wicket-taker for the Daredevils and is more likely to trouble the batsmen on this kind of a surface.
Recent Form
Delhi Daredevils are currently in the bottom-half of the IPL 2017 standings. In order to qualify for the playoffs, they will have to win all of their remaining matches and hope the results of other matches go in their favor.

MI Team News & Playing 11
Team News
The team is in good physical condition with all their players match fit and the selectors are unlikely to tinker with the winning combination for this game.
Key Players
Rohit Sharma, the skipper, is the in-form batsman for the Mumbai Indians. He has struck two fifties in his previous three innings and one can expect another big knock from him come Saturday night. Nitish Rana has hit three fifties so far and he is another key member in the team's batting lineup. Mitchell McClenaghan took three wickets in the last game against RCB including the big wicket of Virat Kohli. He is the season's third best bowler with 15 wickets and the Daredevils may not be too comfortable against him.
Recent Form
Mumbai Indians are at the pole position of the IPL 2017 league table with 16 points from 10 matches. Their five-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bangalore in the last game ensured that they became the first team to qualify for the playoffs this season. MI will go into this game having lost just one of their last nine fixtures.

RG Sharma (c), PA Patel (wk), JC Buttler, N Rana, KA Pollard, KH Pandya, KV Sharma, HH Pandya, MJ McClenaghan, SL Malinga, JJ Bumrah
DD vs MI Head to Head
It's pretty even-stevens as far as head-to-head statistics are concerned. Delhi Daredevils have won 9 matches while Mumbai Indians have won 10 out of the 19 that have been played between these two teams in the Indian Premier League. The Daredevils however have an upper hand in the fact that they have beaten MI five times out of seven at the Feroz Shah Kotla.
DD vs MI Betting Odds
Mumbai Indians are enjoying an impressive run in this tenth edition of the Indian Premier league having won 8 of the 10 league matches they have played so far. They have played four away games this season and have won the last three of them which is one of the reasons why they are starting off as favorites to win this game at 1.8 with 1xbet. Delhi Daredevils, despite playing on their home ground, are outsiders with Betfair at 2.14.
DD vs MI Prediction
Delhi Daredevils will hold the psychological edge of having beaten the Mumbai Indians on the previous four occasions at this ground. But it is going to be an uphill task for the hosts to challenge a team that has been in ominous form and dominant all through the season. MI simply have too many match-winners in their side who on their day can steer the team to victory and so it becomes difficult to look elsewhere when it comes to wagering money. Mumbai Indians have defeated the Delhi Daredevils in their previous two attempts and we predict the visitors to beat them for the third consecutive time.
Final Verdict: Back Mumbai Indians to beat Delhi Daredevils in the 45th match of IPL 2017 at 1.8 with 1xbet.
