KKR vs CSK Predicted Winner

Kolkata Knight Riders to win this contest, leveraging their home advantage and better season form compared to the struggling CSK. Based on the latest data, CSK has been one of the poorest performing teams this IPL 2025 season with just 2 wins from their 11 matches and currently occupy the bottom position in the points table.

KKR, despite their inconsistent form, have significantly better chances with 5 wins from 11 matches and the advantage of playing at Eden Gardens. Their batting lineup led by Ajinkya Rahane and the mystery spin of Varun Chakaravarthy should prove too strong for CSK.

Expect a competitive but ultimately one-sided game with KKR's superior spin bowling effectiveness being the deciding factor in the crucial middle overs, where almost half of all wickets fall at Eden Gardens despite having the lowest scoring rate. CSK's struggles to chase targets above 180 also puts them at a disadvantage if KKR bat first.
