Both teams are coming off a loss at the hands of SRH and GT respectively and will be keen on returning to the winning ways. The Kings are more desperate with only two wins in five matches and are at the eighth position in the points table. 

On the other hand, the Royals are sitting pretty with four wins in five matches and their winning streak ended in the last game against the Titans who won the last over thriller.

But this is an away game and the Royals will have to adapt to the conditions in Mullanpur, a new venue in IPL.
