DC vs RR Prediction & Betting Tips, IPL 2020
Delhi Capitals will bid to return to the top of the 2020 Indian Premier League table when they take on Rajasthan Royals. The match, at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, takes place on October 14 and the live action starts at 19:30 local time.
Delhi have won five of their seven matches so far, including a dominant 46-run victory when they last met Rajasthan last week. They come into this match on the back of a five-wicket loss to Mumbai Indians, however, who leapfrogged them at the top with that result.
Rajasthan Royals lost four matches in a row up to and including that defeat to Delhi. They come into this game after finally getting back to winning ways, however, with more good bowling form Jofra Archer setting up a five-wicket win against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
