This year's IPL looks set to be one of the closest in recent years and ahead of Friday evening's fixture only two points separated top of the table Rajasthan Royals from Gujarat Titans in fourth. Furthermore, Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings are only two points further back.
What this means for the tournament is that every game counts and that in turn means that cricket fans across the globe are being serviced with match after match full of tension and excitement.
This game promises to be nothing short of the same as it brings together the two most successful teams in the history of the IPL!

It has taken a while but the all-conquering swagger of a successful Mumbai Indians side looks to be back at this year's IPL! Not only have they won their last two games, and given new skipper Hardik Pandya something to celebrate after being booed throughout the tournament, but their top marquee players are all now performing.
This was best illustrated in the last game where Suryakumar Yadav hit 52 runs from only 19 balls after Ishan Kishan (69) and Rohit Sharma (38) had got the side off to an excellent start.
And with the ball, Jasprit Bumrah comes into this match after taking 5/21 against RCB, including the wickets of both openers Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis.
After a poor start to the season, Ishan Kishan has been going all guns blazing this season. He has scored 69 against RCB and 42 against DC in the last two matches. Against CSK, he has scored 215 runs in 10 matches, and his overall record at Wankhede is phenomenal with 598 runs in 26 matches.

After a surprise defeat against Delhi Capitals and then a loss to Sunrisers Hyderabad, CSK finally got back to winning ways and back into the top four positions with a convincing victory by 7 wickets with 14 balls remaining over KKR.
From the perspective of the current champions, it was great to see captain Ruturaj Gaikwad shrug off any naysayers and pressure of the job to hit 67 not out whilst anchoring the chase. Likewise, another expert exhibition of slow bowling from Ravindra Jadeja at Chepauk saw him take the Player of the Match Award.
Ahead of this game, CSK will know they must be at their best if they are to stop a Mumbai Indians side who are full of confidence at this moment.
The Captain of Chennai Super Kings, Ruturaj Gaikwad scored a match winning half century (67 runs in 58 balls) in the last match against KKR. In seven head to head matches against KKR, Gaikwad has amassed 169 runs and averages 33.80. Given his performance in the last match, we back Ruturaj Gaikwad to score over 27.5 runs in today's match.

According to the forecast, it is going to be hot and humid with clear skies throughout this game on Sunday evening in Mumbai. We can expect dew to form on the outfield throughout the match with humidity levels over 70% from start to finish.

Average TurnThere is good pace, bounce and carry on this track at the Wankhede Stadium. RCB posted 196/8 in the last game but Mumbai made a mockery of that total by reaching 199 with 27 balls remaining! A par total in this game is likely to be around 220.According to the forecast
The pitch at Wankhede Stadium favours the batsman and in the last two games the total aggregate scores are 395 and 439. Expect a similar kind of surface for today's game and another high scoring game is on the cards.
Mumbai Indians won the toss and chose to field first ahead of their win over RCB on Thursday in Match 25 at the Wankhede Stadium. As a result, we predict that both captains will want to chase in the second innings and will choose to bowl first if they win the toss.
This looks set to be an excellent game with CSK looking like a well oiled machine once again in their last game and Mumbai Indians showcasing their immense batting firepower in their win over RCB. We are predicting a tight contest but, with match-winners in the bowling and batting department all in strong form, we expect to see Mumbai Indians come out on top in this home match.
We are backing Mumbai Indians to win!
