Match Preview
Both Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants are set to play their last league-stage games, and technically their last games in the 2024 season of the IPL. They will lock horns on May 17, Friday, at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. While five-time champion team Mumbai Indians became the first to knock out of the season, LSG are almost on the verge of getting eliminated.
In their respective last games, Mumbai slumped to KKR by a margin of 18 runs, whereas LSG went down to DC by a margin of 19 runs. Both sides will aim to end an unsuccessful campaign on a successful note by securing a win in the forthcoming game.
Toss Prediction
The last time Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants were up against each other was on April 30 at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. The game saw home skipper KL Rahul winning the toss over the rival skipper Hardik Pandya. Considering this, we think Hardik Pandya would win the toss in the forthcoming game, as Wankhede is MI’s home ground.
Win Possibility
Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians will lock horns for the second time in the current season of the Indian Premier League. The last time they were up against each other, LSG registered a four-wicket win over their counterparts. While LSG would aim to continue the winning momentum over MI, home favourites would aim to bid a victorious farewell to their home fans.
Apart from that, playing at the Wankhede would add to MI’s advantages of winning, and they would seek revenge of their last defeat. Considering this, we think Hardik Pandya and Co. would be favourites to win the upcoming game.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
The upcoming match between Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants is the seventh and final game of the IPL 2024 that the Wankhede Stadium will host.

The powerplay score is likely to hover around 55-60.
