Defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders are poised to face Lucknow Super Giants in a crucial IPL afternoon match at Eden Gardens on Tuesday. Both teams have secured four points from their respective four matches since the commencement of the IPL 2025 season, each achieving two victories leading up to this encounter.

Kolkata's journey has been quite unpredictable so far. After suffering early losses to Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Mumbai Indians, KKR regained their momentum with a victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad, having previously triumphed against Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati. Similarly, Lucknow experienced a parallel trajectory; they lost their opening match to Delhi Capitals but then secured a win against Sunrisers. Upon returning home, they faced an unexpected defeat against Punjab Kings, only to recover with a win over Mumbai.

In their head-to-head record, Lucknow holds a slight advantage, having won three out of five matches against the defending champions, although KKR emerged victorious in both of their last two encounters during IPL 2024.

Squads: Kolkata Knight Riders: Quinton de Kock (wk), Venkatesh Iyer, Ajinkya Rahane (c), Rinku Singh, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Sunil Narine, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh, Spencer Johnson, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakaravarthy, Anrich Nortje, Manish Pandey, Vaibhav Arora, Anukul Roy, Luvnith Sisodia, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Moeen Ali, Rovman Powell, Mayank Markande, Chetan Sakariya.
