LSG vs DC: IPL 2024 team news
Both teams have faced contrasting fortunes so far this season. While LSG sit third on the points table with three wins in four matches, DC are reeling at the bottom, managing only a solitary victory from their five outings.
Speedster Mayank Yadav, who lit up the IPL with his 150 kmph thunderbolts, is unlikely to play against DC due to soreness in the lower abdominal area, as confirmed by head coach Justin Langer.
DC’s bowling has been their Achilles heel Anrich Nortje has failed to live up to the expectations of spearheading the attack as his returns have been underwhelming after coming back from an injury. Eyes will also be on Rishabh Pant as the race to be India’s wicketkeeper in the upcoming T20I World Cup heats up amid growing rumours that he is almost a certainty.

LSG vs DC: Prediction for today’s IPL match
Lucknow’s strength has been their bowling, as they cleaned up their opposition in their last two victories. Given their added cushion of a string of allrounders and Delhi’s lacklustre bowling, expect them to win.
