Rajasthan may be flying high in the points table as it stands, but this looms as an extremely even contest between two quality sides littered with big-name stars.
RCB have won two of their past three matches and will be looking to push into the top four, as well as improve their net run-rate into the positives.
The Royals are coming off a loss to the Lucknow Super Giants and will be looking to bounce back and cement their spot at the top of the table.
