Matchday 15 of IPL 2024 sees the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) take on the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the M. Chinnaswamy stadium on Tuesday evening. 

Both teams haven’t been in the best of the forms having won a game each. RCB lost their most recent encounter to the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), while LSG were successful in winning two important points against the Punjab Kings (PBKS).

The RCB vs LSG rivalry was quite a spectacle to watch in last year’s edition of the TATA IPL as both of their games ended up going down the wire with both teams winning on each other’s home turf. A similar scenario could unfold on Tuesday evening as the two teams lock horns once again. 

Ahead of the MI vs RR clash, The Sporting News takes a look at the pitch report in Bengaluru, predictions for the game, expected lineups, and odds. 

RCB vs LSG: Pitch Report

The M. Chinnaswamy has always been a batting-friendly pitch with high scores expected in T20 games. In the two games played so far, scores of 170+ were scores in both games and by both sides. 

Considering that it is a flat surface, there is nothing much for the pacers or spinners and they would have to work hard to produce wickets.
