Both the sides look comfortable making it to the playoffs of this season. The winner of this game will affirm a spot in the knockout stage of IPL 2020. Last time when these two teams met, RCB clinched the game that went to the Super Over. Let’s look at our fantasy 11 predictions for this clash and here are top picks for MI vs RCB.

Team Preview

Mumbai Indians (MI)

Defending champions Mumbai Indians have 14 points against their name in 11 matches. Although MI suffered a comprehensive defeat in their last game against Rajasthan Royals, they still occupy the pole position in the Points Table. 

MI skipper Rohit Sharma will continue remaining out from this clash as well due to an injury. As a result, the Mumbai-based franchise will take the field with the same playing XI in this game, and Kieron Pollard will continue leading the side.

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)

The Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore have played like one of the best teams of IPL 2020. Despite losing their last game against Chennai Super Kings, the Bangalore-based franchise is placed at the third spot in the Points Table after seven wins. 

Just like their opponents, Virat and co will play this game with the same playing XI in this encounter as well. The form of opener Aaron Finch continues to be a major concern for RCB.
