Top Five LSG vs PBKS Betting Tips:

1. Total wickets will be over 12.5

The conditions at the Ekana Cricket Stadium of Lucknow can turn out to be notably challenging for the batters, especially if a slow and turning track is offered. Both Lucknow and Punjab hallmark star-studded bowling units and hence we expect the wickets tally to cross the 13-wicket mark this Saturday.

2. Shikhar Dhawan will face over 24.5 balls

Being the skipper of the team, Shikhar Dhawan has scored a majority of runs for Punjab Kings so far in the ongoing competition. Dhawan is currently the orange cap holder of IPL 2023, with as many as 233 runs in the first 4 league fixtures. The Southpaw is further known for his marathon stays at the crease across formats.

3. Both teams to hit over 7.5 sixes

A formidable and fierce batting lineup appears to be Lucknow Super Giants and Punjab Kings’ brightest aspect in the ongoing IPL season. Lucknow and Punjab feature multiple elite strikers of the ball in their team with skippers KL Rahul and Shikhar Dhawan leading the chart.

4. Sam Curran’s player performance will be over 34.5

The premier English all-rounder Sam Curran was picked by Punjab Kings in the last IPL auction for a record-breaking amount of INR 19.5 crores. Curran is rated highly by the experts in the shortest format of the game, however, he has failed to make an impact so far in this season. A strong comeback from the all-rounder is highly expected now.

5. KL Rahul to score a fifty

KL Rahul has possibly been the most consistent batter across the last few seasons of the Indian Premier League. The opening batter has crossed the 600-run mark consecutively in the last five IPL editions. Rahul has had a horrible run early on in the IPL 2023 and he is bound to play a notable inning sooner than later.

LSG vs PBKS Match Winner Prediction:

Second-positioned Lucknow Super Giants and sixth-positioned Punjab Kings will be back in action on Saturday, following a brief turnaround period. LSG have had a dream run so far in the ongoing IPL season with 3 wins in 4 games, while PBKS achieved decent 2 triumphs upfront.

Considering the recent performance, Lucknow Super Giants will head into Saturday night’s fixture as runaway favourites. With added home advantage, Lucknow further appears undefeatable as the team does not lack firepower in any of the departments.
