RCB vs CSK Match Prediction, IPL 2024 Today Match Prediction: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) meet Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in what could be dubbed as an IPL 2024 virtual quarter-final at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday (May 18). The equation is fairly straightforward though for the Men in Yellow who only need to win the match or hope that the match is washed out, a likely possibility given the weather conditions in Bengaluru.
On the other hand, Bengaluru not only need to win but also need to win by a certain margin in order to proceed to the business end of the competition. A washed out game will mean end of Bengaluru's hopes of securing a place in the final four after peaking perhaps a bit too late heading into this fixture.
Here is look at what the stats suggest.
