RCB vs DC team news

RCB is facing some injury issues, as Rajat Patidar has been ruled out of the IPL due to an Achilles problem, and Josh Hazlewood is still not fit to play.

On a positive note, they have signed Wayne Parnell as a replacement for the injured Reece Topley, who had to return home after dislocating his shoulder.

Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals have no new injury concerns but could field some fresh faces to turn around their fortunes. Sarfaraz Khan might replace Prithvi Shaw to rejig the batting order.

RCB vs DC prediction

  • Result prediction: RCB to win 

Despite RCB only winning one game so far this season, that is still one more win than DC have, and they're unlikely to change that, with the Challengers the pick in this one.

RCB's sole win came in a dominant bowling display, winning by eight wickets against the Mumbai Indians, but they also came within a hair of winning a second game when they lost to Lucknow Super Giants by just one wicket on the final ball. 

On the other hand, Delhi have been beaten handily in three of their matchups so far, going down by 50 runs to LSG, six wickets against GT, and 57 runs against RR. Their six-wicket defeat against MI came on the final ball. 

They're due for a win eventually, but it won't be this week. 

RCB vs DC best bet 

  • Pick: RCB to win 
  • Odds: 1.67 (Dafabet)

Delhi Capitals have lost four straight, three of which being fairly substantial defeats, meaning it's unlikely that they will net their first win this round. 

Every team will likely have their day eventually, but the Capitals may have to wait for theirs, as RCB are looking better than their record may show, and they should easily roll DC over. 

RCB vs DC outside bet 

  • Pick: Top Batsman - RCB - Glenn Maxwell 
  • Odds: 5.10 (Dafabet)

It's a fairly stacked field for this, considering Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis wear the same uniform, but at 5.10 Glenn Maxwell is absolutely worth a look for top RCB batsman. 

Maxwell has been known to go nuclear with bat in hand, and while he's had a slow start to the year, he is definitely worth a risk for those looking to cash in big time.
