Odds, picks & predictions
Lucknow Super Giants: +125
Mumbai Indians: -155
Moneyline pick: Mumbai Indians -155
The pitch in Chennai mimics Lucknow more than Mumbai, which should favor the Super Giants. However, Mumbai’s batting lineup has had success before in these conditions and should be out for blood after a tight loss in the first fixture.
Although Mumbai’s bowling attack leaves a lot to be desired, the team has been shoring things up of late. Lucknow’s batting lineup is too inconsistent to back, while Mumbai’s batters have found a way to click. The Indians have been able to chase down 200+ totals easily this season, while Lucknow has struggled to score consistently. Take Mumbai to win the eliminator.
