BORUSSIA DORTMUND VS REAL MADRID

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE  action continues...............................

Today its Borussia Dortmund taking on Real Madrid at Signal Iduna Park.These 2 teams have met before in the group stages where Dortmund dominated Real.I think todays match is more towards Dortmund as they have home ground benefit & players like Gotze,Reus,Lewandowski are on top of their form whereas Madrid have unavailabiltiy of key players like Marcelo,Modric but still Madrid cant be underestimated...............
Player to watch-Marcos Reus(Borussia Dortmund)

Get ready for an epic encounter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BAYERN MUNICH VS BARCELONA

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE  returns..............

Its the semifinal of the Uefa Champions League(UCL):Bayern taking on Barcelona.These two teams have met before in 2008 where Barca emerged as champions.I think todays match is more towards Bayern as match is at Allianz Arena & Bayern has scored 16 goals in their last 3 matches.Bayern are on top of their form whereas Barca is lacking in form,but still u cant underestimate the La Liga champions.Lionel Messi has returned to the squad & is declared fit to play against Bayern in the 1st leg.

Player to watch-Lionel Messi(Barcelona).

Player to watch-Thomas Muller(Bayern Munich).

My prediction goes to Bayern as they are playing at home & seeing their current form they are really looking to win this contest whereas Leo Messi return can boost Barca,lets see whos gonna win!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets hope for a blast at Kotla!!!!!!

ROYAL CHALLENGERS BANGALORE VS PUNE WARRIORS INDIA

RCB VS PWI

This is going to be a match to watch.For PWI Yuvi is back in form whereas RCB  is blessed by players like Gayle,Kohli.RCB are doing well till date in the IPL & are currently placed at 2nd in the points table.On contrast PWI has shown their batting skills but still they are low down at the table.Lets have a look ate their stats................
 RCB                                       Played-7      Won-5      Lost-2
 PWI                                       Played-7      Won-2      Lost-5
Player to watch-Chris Gayle(RCB)
Player to watch-Yuvraj Singh(PWI)
I like to choose RCB over PWI due to their excellent performance at their home.RCB looks more dominating over PWI both on & off the field,but PWI has shown that they can outplay any team so this is going to be real classic..................
Lets see who goes home winning!!!!!!!

CHENNAI SUPER KINGS VS RAJASTHAN ROYALS

CSK VS RR

Its going to be a fully packed entertainment for the viewers.Both the teams are on top of their form which is clearly shown by their stats.................

CSK           Played-6            Won-4       Lost-2

RR             Played-6            Won-4       Lost-2

but CSK has a little better run rate over RR........

Player to watch-M S Dhoni(CSK)

Player to watch-Shane Watson(RR)

My todays predictions goes with CSK as they are a better looking side & they have done well while playing at home.On contrast RR will look to make it difficult for CSK..............

Its going to be a match to watch!!!!!!!

CHELSEA VS LIVERPOOL

SUPER SUNDAY CONTINUES....................

Now it Chelsea vs Liverpool at Anfield & its the return of Rafael Benitez to anfield for  the first time since his departure in 2010.I think todays match is going to liverpool as the home ground factor will play its part.Chelsea on the other hand are also willing to jump up in the points table by beating liverpool.

player to watch-Luis Suarez(Liverpool)

player to watch-Juan Mata(Chelsea)

Both teams has legends & for sure this is going to be a match to watch.....

Lets see who gets it right today!!!!

KINGS XI PUNJAB VS PUNE WARRIORS INDIA

Kings XI Punjab(KXIP)

Punjab have not performed well till date in this years IPL.They seriously need to look at their drawbacks.Lets have a look at their stats.......
played-5    won-2   lost-3
player to watch-Adam Gilchrist

Pune Warriors India(PWI)

Pune ar down at the table.They are at 8th position in the standings.They have underperformed till date in the IPL which their stats clearly show.......
played-6     won-2     lost-4
player to watch-Yuvraj Singh

My predictions certainly goes to kings since they are a better looking side.Punjab also has game changers like Gilchrist,Hussey.On the other side there are also players like yuvraj,steve smith......
hope to see an exciting match!!!!

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR VS MANCESTER CITY

In todays epic encounter between the two giants of EPL,i think Tottenham has an edge over Manchester City.Tottenham recent form is stupendous whereas City is also in high cheers as they are coming after winning a tough derby.Both the teams have players of high quality!!!!!
Player to watch-Gareth Bale(Tottenham Hotspur)
Player to watch-Joe Hart(Manchester City)
My predictions for todays match is that it is going to be a draw as both the teams are in high spirit.Gareth Bale is back for Tottenham......so lets see whether his return can make a difference!!!!!
Predicted Scoreline:Manchester City 2-2 Tottenham Hotspur.
 Get ready for a blast!!!!

DELHI DAREDEVILS VS MUMBAI INDIANS

Delhi Daredevils(DD)

DD hopes for IPL title are already gone & their stats clearly show this,but they can still hope to finish in the top four!!!!
Played-6       Won-6       Lost-0
Player to watch-David Warner.

Mumbai Indians (MI)

MI are performing nicely & are doing wat was expected of them.Their stats clearly show the reason for the smile on the face of their fans!!!
Played-5     Won-3     Lost-2
Player to watch-Kieron Pollard

I would prefer Mumbai over Delhi seeing the current performance of MI.Delhi might get the home advantage but still Mumbai is over Delhi in all the 3 departments-batting,bowling & fielding so far in the IPL,but still Delhi can turn it around this tym......
Hope for an epic encounter!!!!!

ROYAL CHALLENGERS BANGALORE VS RAJASTHAN ROYALS

Royal Challengers Bangalore(RCB)

RCB are doing what was expected & their fans will be happy from their performance in the IPL till now.Their stats clearly show the reason for a smile on the face of bengaluru fans........
Played-6      Won-4     Lost-2
Player to watch-Chris Gayle.

Rajasthan Royals(RR)

RR have lost just a single match till date in the IPL.Their last match against Mumbai Indians they won it comfortably against an opposition which has outstanding players like sachin,ponting,harbhajan,pollard.lets have a look at their stats......
Played-5     Won-4    Lost-1
Player to watch-Ajinkya Rahane.

For this match my prediction goes with RCB as they have a home advantage plus they have West Indian Thunder---Chris Gayle who can turn it around for them at any stage in the match.RR is a better side and they have shown it by the way they win over Mumbai>>>>
So get ready for a blast!!!!  

KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS VS CHENNAI SUPER KINGS

Kolkata Knight Riders(KKR)

Kolkata has definitely underperformed in this year IPL.Defending champions has certainly not lived upto their fans expectations & their stats clearly show this......
Played-5     Won-2      Lost-3
Player to watch-Sunil Narine.

Chennai Super Kings(CSK)

Chennai as always are doing a stupendous job till date in IPL.They are showing why they have won this major tournament 2 times.Their stats clearly show their dominance in the game......
Played-5    Won-3      Lost-2
Player to watch-M S Dhoni.

My prediction certainly goes to the kings(CSK) as they are a better looking side.Looking into their current performance undoubtedly they have a better chance over the KKR but still KKR cannot be neglected since they are playing on their home ground  so they might know the conditions well.
So get ready for a nailbiter
CSK VS KKR!!!!!!!

AFTER 4 PREDICTIONS!!!!!

So 2 out of 4 predictions right so far.....
feeling good!!!
hope for more success with my predictions in the future....>>>>

SUNRISERS HYDERABAD VS KINGS XI PUNJAB

Sunrisers Hyderabad

Sunrisers has performed above what everyone expected.From what we saw in the last match,Amit Mishra changing the game completely by taking the first hattrick of the IPL 2013.Their stats reflect their hardwork & positivity towards the game.

played-6        won -4        lost-2

player to watch-Amit Mishra.

Kings XI Punjab 

Punjab has a balance between their batting & bowling.They have both experience as well as the zeal among the players.Their last match against KKR was a nail biter.Their stats show their mixed performance in the IPL till now.

played-4      won-2       lost-2

player to watch-David Hussey.

My todays predictions goes to Sunrisers Hyderabad  due to the home ground stuff and the quality players like Amit Mishra,Steyn gun,Ishant Sharma & Sangakara.On contrast Punjab has Gilchrist,David Hussey,Shawn Marsh & Praveen Kumar.
Thats my prediction.....
Whats Yours!!!!!!

CHENNAI SUPER KINGS VS DELHI DAREDEVILS

Chennai Super Kings(CSK)

CSK one of the great teams who had shown their potential in the ipl but this year stats are not much satisfying for their fans.
played-4     won-2      lost-2    and  a negative run rate as well.........
Delhi Daredevils(DD)

DD has not performed up to the level in this years ipl and we can say that luck factor is not favouring them.They had been in close matches but are not able to win it.
played-5     won-0     lost-5
thats probably the worst performance in the ipl so far for any team.........
 
My todays prediction goes to DD as home ground factor can work for them this time and seeing the form of David Warner & Mahela Jayawardane,this time delhi can really get their first win in the ipl..........on other side CSK has Dhoni,sir Ravindra Jadeja,Dwayne Bravo who can give delhi a great fight!!!!!
so lets see  whos gonna win!!!!!

MUMBAI INDIANS VS RAJASTHAN ROYALS

Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals

Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians is at 2nd in points table & they deserve it that is unquestionable!!!
played-4
won-3
lost-1
Mumbai has the highest net run rate in IPL!!!!

Rajasthan royals

Rajasthan Royals is at 3rd in points table & are doing well till now!!
played-4
won-3
lost-1
Rajasthan also has a good run rate........
But when it comes to comparison Mumbai is above rajasthan in all 3 aspects-batting,bowling& fielding.
My predictions goes to Mumbai Indians as they have more game changers like pollard,malinga&sachin whereas Rajasthan has watson,dravid&cooper........
Mumbai looks good on & off d scoresheet as well.. ..
stay tuned for other match predictions!!!
have a good night!!! 

Close match still Sunrisers rocked d stage
