Two of the three bottom teams in the league, wins have been few and far between for both franchises in 2023; just nine combined wins (four for Delhi, five for Punjab) despite having played 21 games between them.

DC vs PBKS prediction
Both teams have struggled this season, but the good news is that for one this match could still launch a winning streak.
The Kings have lost their last two outings, and have mustered only two wins in their last five appearances.
Delhi are also coming off of a loss, and while they have won three of their last five, they are currently the bottom-placed team in the points table.
All things considered, we expect the Kings to take the win in this one.
