IPL 2025 is here again as the Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders face each other. This fixture will be held at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk, Chennai. Fans can be sure that it will be action-packed, and they can stream the action live on Sky Sports, JioHotstar, and Star Sports Network. Who will win this game of cricket?

Chennai Super Kings' recent form

The Chennai Super Kings are so formidable that they are always a title contender. However, the story does not seem to be the same in this year's IPL 2025. Aside from their first win in the opener match, they have recorded back-to-back losses to Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Rajasthan Royals. Their solid roster, which includes the likes of Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, and captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, seems not up to the challenge.

Kolkata Knight Riders

Kolkata Knight Riders are a strong favorite and the reason is not far-fetched. They were the winners of the IPL last season following a victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad by 8 wickets. The top players that season were Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy. They recorded 488 runs and 21 Scalps respectively. Other players who will be instrumental to their performance in this much-needed win are Varun Chakravarthy, Andre Russell, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, and captain Ajinkya Rahane.

Expert Betting Tips

The question going into this game is, will Kolkata Knight Riders be able to extend Chennai Super Kings consecutive loss? CSK has suffered four significant losses after their first win, so they are a bit more desperate in this match. They will be looking to draw strength for their first match which was in their home stadium in order to give Kolkata Knight Riders a run for their money.
