The 51st Match of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) will see the Gujarat Titans (GT) take the field against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). The match will be at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday, 7th May, at 3:30 PM IST. Before the match starts, here is all you need to know about the fantasy predictions of the match - player stats, team form guides, top captain or vice-captain choices and the best possible teams for the fantasy contests of the game.
Gujarat Titans have performed just as the defending champions should in this edition of the tournament. They have played ten matches in the tournament and have managed to win seven of them. As a result, they are sitting pretty at the top of the table and are just one more win away from qualifying for the playoffs.
The Lucknow Super Giants, on the other hand, have let their momentum drift away from them after a good start. Though they are still at number in the points table with 11 points from ten matches, their recent form could have been better. And now, with KL Rahul out of the equation, LSG will have to display real character to make it to the top four.
