Toss Prediction

The PCA sports a batting-friendly wicket and since four of the last six IPL matches here have been won by the side batting first, the team that wins the toss is more likely to bat first. Kings XI Punjab have won the toss in their previous four matches at this venue and we predict them to win their fifth consecutive toss here on Sunday.

PBKS Team News & Playing 11

Team News

Kings XI Punjab don't have any injury issues to deal with at the moment and they will be going into this game with an unchanged lineup.

Key Players

Hashim Amla has been the team's best batsman this IPL. One of his fifties came against Gujarat Lions in the reverse fixture and one can expect another big knock from him when the two sides clash again on Sunday night. Martin Guptill's arrival has bolstered KXIP's batting and he too will be the one to watch out for. Sandeep Sharma and Axar Patel will be the go-to bowlers for the KXIP. The two have been among the wickets and the team will have their hopes pinned on them when it comes to bowling.

Recent Form

Kings XI Punjab may not be currently among the top four teams on the IPL 2017 leaderboard but they are not out of reckoning yet. By winning all their remaining matches and a few other results going in their favor, Maxwell's men can still make it to the playoffs.

KXIP Predicted Playing 11

  • GJ Maxwell (c), MJ Guptill, HM Amla, M Vohra, SE Marsh, WP Saha (wk), AR Patel, MM Sharma, VR Aaron, Sandeep Sharma, T Natarajan.

GL Team News & Playing 11

Team News

The team has been reported to be free from all injury concerns and there is a good chance that the selectors might retain the group of eleven from the last game.

Key Players

Suresh Raina is currently the third-highest run-getter in this edition of the Indian Premier League. The skipper led from the front and smashed his third fifty of the season in the last game against the Daredevils. Dinesh Karthik too hit a fifty in that game and he also has a score of 58* against the KXIP in the reverse fixture. With Ravindra Jadeja looking out of sorts at the moment, Gujarat Lions will depend mainly on James Faulkner and Basil Thampi to deliver the goods with the ball.

Recent Form

Gujarat Lions are second-to-bottom in the IPL 2017 league standings with just 6 points from 11 matches. Their bowlers were taken to the cleaners by the Delhi Daredevils in the last game, resulting in their elimination from the tournament. That was their fourth defeat in five matches and third in a row.

GL Predicted Playing 11

  • SK Raina (c), DR Smith, BB McCullum, KD Karthik (wk), AJ Finch, Ishan Kishan, RA Jadeja, JP Faulkner, PJ Sangwan, Basil Thampi, Ankit Soni.

 

­ KXIP vs GL Head to Head

Only three matches have been played between these two teams in the past with Kings XI Punjab winning two of them. The first of these was played last year at this ground where Gujarat Lions recorded an easy five-wicket win. Their most recent face-off came earlier this season at Rajkot and this time it was KXIP who got the better of the Lions.

­ KXIP vs GL Betting Odds

Kings XI Punjab blew away the Delhi Daredevils in their previous outing at this ground and they have also beaten Gujarat Lions the last two times they have played against them. So home advantage and good recent performance make the KXIP start off as favorites to win this game at best odds of 1.86 with betfair. Injury to Andrew Tye has clearly left the Lions' bowling department depleted and this has cost them three successive defeats. Betfair has the visitors up at 2.02.

­ KXIP vs GL Prediction

Gujarat Lions have joined Royal Challengers Bangalore in the list of eliminated teams from the Indian Premier League 2017. Injuries to Bravo and Tye in addition to lacklustre performances from Smith, Jadeja and some of the fringe Indian players have all contributed to the team's poor show this season. While the Kings XI Punjab have raised their game and will go into this match high on confidence, the Lions will still be reeling from their embarrassing defeat at the hands of the Delhi Daredevils. KXIP are playing at home and they will look to exploit the chinks in their opponent's bowling attack. We thus predict the hosts to emerge victorious in this match.

Final Verdict: Back Kings XI Punjab to beat Gujarat Lions in the 47th match of IPL 2017 at 1.86 with betfair.
