Preview of CSK vs KKR match predictions and analyzing head-to-head stats and team form to predict the winner of today’s clash. Match 25 of the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League is set to be played between Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Friday, April 11.
CSK have been on a losing streak of four games after clinching a victory in their first game of the season. After their four-wicket win against Mumbai Indians, they’ve just not been able to click as a unit. All of their losses have come while chasing totals.
In the five games KKR have played so far, they have won two and lost three. Despite their mixed start to the season, they have looked quite balanced as far as their composition is concerned. Much like CSK, they would be keen on getting back with a win in this game.
