Match 39 of the 2025 Indian Premier League will take us to Eden Gardens, where the Kolkata Knight Riders will play host to the Gujarat Titans on Monday afternoon. KKR are in sixth place, while GT lead the league standings. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Kolkata Knight Riders have been some way from the type of form we saw last season, having already lost more games this year than they did in their title run in 2024.
KKR’s poor form was on full display in their last match, when they bowled out PBKS for just 111 runs, but came up 16 runs short, dismissed for only 95 runs in the 16th over.
The Knight Riders do not have a single batsman in the top-15 leading run-scorers list this season, but Varun Chakaravarthy is 10th in the purple cap standings.
Meanwhile, the Gujarat Titans have been in impressive form in this competition and notched up their fifth win in seven on Saturday when they beat the Delhi Capitals by seven wickets.
What made the win all the more notable was that they were chasing a formidable 203/8, but got there with four balls to spare, with Jos Buttler leading the way with 97* in 54 balls.
These sides have met four times, but one game was washed out. Of the three games they did play, GT won two and KKR won the other.

Our Kolkata Knight Riders vs Gujarat Titans Prediction
While the Kolkata Knight Riders are the defending champions, they have been a long way from their best this season, and unless they can find some form, they are likely to miss out on the knockouts.
The Gujarat Titans, on the other hand, are starting to look like genuine title contenders recently and enter this match off the back of a very impressive victory over the Capitals last time out. We feel the visitors will continue their good form by adding another win to their tally in this one. Our Kolkata Knight Riders vs Gujarat Titans prediction is Gujarat Titans wins the match.
