IPL 2024, Match 39: Chennai Super Kings vs Lucknow Super Giants – Match preview and result prediction

Revenge will be on the cards on Tuesday (April 23) as Chennai Super Kings (CSK) face Lucknow Super Kings (LSG) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The contest comes days after both faced each other in Lucknow where KL Rahul’s brilliant 82-run knock helped LSG down CSK. This will be the fifth meeting between the sides, with LSG leading the overall affair 2-1, with one match ending in a draw due to rain. 

CSK so far have a flawless record at the MA Chidambaram Stadium having won all their previous three matches at home. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Co so far have eight points from seven matches and a win will only solidify their position in the top four. CSK are likely to make wholesale changes to the squad with Mitchell Santner also in the reckoning to win his first cap of the season.

LSG on the other hand will be looking to go on 10 points as well, having had a shaky start to the campaign. KL Rahul will be looking to make another impression with the bat while the likes of Quinton de Kock and Marcus Stoinis will also look to get going as LSG try to build momentum in IPL 2024.
