RCB enters the contest on the back of four consecutive victories, with two wins while defending totals and two while chasing targets. To keep their playoff hopes alive, they must win their remaining matches against DC and Chennai Super Kings, making them a formidable opponent for the visitors.

Meanwhile, despite a recent 20-run win over the Rajasthan Royals, DC sits on 12 points after as many matches. Despite having a lower net run rate compared to RCB (-0.316 versus +0.217), they currently occupy fifth place. However, they also face pressure to secure a win, as the Lucknow Super Giants are close behind with two matches in hand.
