Nitish Rana-led Kolkata Knight Riders will face Shikhar Dhawan's Punjab Kings at the Eden Gardens on Monday, May 8. In the IPL 2023 points table, KKR are placed at the eighth spot with eight points in ten games while Punjab Kings have managed the seventh spot with ten points in ten games.
Kolkata have been in the bottom three for the most part of this season but can turn things around with a couple of wins. With only five points between second place and last place, the table is very tight and anything can happen in the fag end of the season. KKR won their last match against the Sunrisers Hyderabad by five runs at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium. KKR have dominated the Punjab Kings by winning 20 of their 31 head-to-head matches, especially at home where they have eight wins in 11 matches.
Punjab Kings have been unpredictable this season with wins in alternate matches since the consecutive wins in the first two matches. The PBKS' batting will receive a big boost after Liam Livingstone's return to form against the Mumbai Indians. Spinners need to come into the game more as they will face dry pitches from now on. Punjab won the reverse leg against Kolkata by seven runs in Mohali.
