RCB Seeks Momentum Against Struggling LSG in Lucknow
6 May
Summary
- LSG seeks first home win; RCB aims to rebound from loss.
- LSG is at the bottom of the table with two wins.
- RCB sits second despite recent batting inconsistencies.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are set to face the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on Thursday, May 7, at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. RCB, the defending champions, will be looking to regain their winning form after a recent defeat. LSG, on the other hand, has struggled significantly this season, sitting at the bottom of the IPL 2026 points table with only two wins and seven losses.
Despite attempts to find a winning combination, LSG's recent high-scoring match still resulted in a loss due to their bowlers' inability to contain the opposition. RCB, though second in the standings with six wins, has experienced some inconsistency in their middle order batting. However, they are expected to field a largely unchanged squad for this encounter.
The head-to-head record favors RCB, who have won five out of the seven matches played against LSG. This match is crucial for LSG to improve their home record and climbing up the table, while RCB aims to solidify their position.
