In a clash between two direct competitors for playoff berths in the IPL 2025 campaign, the Mumbai Indians host the Lucknow Super Giants in a day fixture on Sunday. This match will be played at the Wankhede Stadium with only net run rate separating the two teams after nine matches each, and our prediction is a surprise win for the Super Giants.
After 42 matches, Mumbai are fourth in the standings with 10 points from nine matches (W5, L4), while Lucknow are sixth with the same points tally. Punjab Kings is the other side on the same tally, and as they play on Saturday, at the start of this match, both Mumbai and Lucknow could slip down the table.
The Mumbai Indians started their season in usual fashion and lost four of the first matches, including a loss to Lucknow by 12 runs. They kicked on from there and won the next four and zoomed into the top half of the table.
Their home form will be under the scanner, and with three wins out of four matches played this season, Mumbai made the most of these conditions.
Lucknow have hit a bump in recent times and come here with two defeats in their last three matches. Having won their last three away matches, they would fancy their chances of another surprise result here.
