Mumbai Indians v Kolkata Knight Riders Predictions & Betting Tips (IPL - 16.10.2020)
- Written by David Bet
After an exciting summer of cricket in England, the IPL have been taking it to the next level this autumn so far and Mumbai v Kolkata looks set to be a thriller as the latter look to catch up on the Indians at the top of the table.
It’s a game the top bookmakers out there have got pretty evenly matched, and we expect a tight one on Friday... Read here our Mumbai Indians vs Kolkata Knight Riders betting tips!
The game is being held at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium and is live on Sky Sports.
The Knight Riders are coming into the game off the back of a heavy 82 run defeat by Royal Challengers, while the Indians continued their run with four straight wins and only one loss in six, that being a super over loss from the Royal Challengers.
They last met at the end of September when the Indians won by 49 runs, with Rohit Sharma hitting 80 off 54 balls.
Last season there was a win apiece for the teams, a first win for the Knight Riders in 10 matches.
He knocked a half century last game and the Knight Riders will be keen for Pat Cummins to get his wicket early. We’d back de Kock to top score for the Indians at 13/5 with Ladbrokes, while he’s also 9/2 to be top scorer in the match.
Combine that with the Indians and you can back them and de Kock to top score at 4/1, while the Indians will need to be aware of Eoin Morgan who can prove a real game changer.
We’d back a relatively comfortable win in the end for the top side in the IPL though and our bet of the game goes with a two wicket or 11-20 run win at 7/1 with Betfair.
