LSG vs MI Match Toss Prediction
Teams fielding first have been the most successful over recent games in Chepauk and we expect both sides to choose to bat second if they win the toss.
LSG vs MI Pitch Report
MA Chidambaram Stadium is renowned for producing pitches which offer something for both batters and bowlers. Any score of over 175 will be very hard to chase down in the second innings.
We saw CSK successfully defended a target of 173 in the 1st qualifier. The ball is gripping pretty well and spinners are going to be crucial for this match as well.
Chennai Weather Report
There will be rain or cloud cover throughout this game. The forecast is for the temperature to be no lower than 32 degrees and the humidity levels to be above 75%.

LSG vs MI Prediction
Playing at a neutral venue in Chepauk, this clash should be full of entertainment with both teams more than capable of producing a match winning performance. In Quinton de Kock, Marcus Stoinis and Ravi Bishnoi, Lucknow could certainly cause Mumbai Indians plenty of problems but overall we think that Mumbai Indians have more match winners. Particularly with the bat, Mumbai Indians are very strong and we are backing them to win.
