IPL 2020 Form guide: (last 5 matches | win:loss)
DC - The Capitals has found itself in a spot of bother after winning just one win in its last five game and heads into its deciding fixture with four straight losses. (1:4)
RCB - Bangalore's play-offs bid took a heavy toll after it won just two of its last five games and heads into the encounter on the back of three straight losses. (2:3)
For early leaders Delhi Capitals (DC) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), the business end of the round-robin stage was to be used to smoothen a few rough edges. Instead, the two go into Monday’s match in Abu Dhabi with their very survival in question.
The winner will rise to 16 points and be guaranteed a top-two finish, which ensures two chances to get to the final. The loser can still progress to the playoffs, but needs to avoid a heavy defeat so that the net run rate doesn’t fall below that of fourth-placed Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).
