Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will square off against Gujarat Titans (GT) in the 39th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 at the iconic Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata on Saturday (April 29). Notably, KKR and GT have met each other once in the IPL 2023, where Kolkata emerged victorious in a last-over thriller by three wickets.

Talking about their previous games, KKR defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in their last match, whereas Gujarat registered a win over Mumbai Indians (MI). Jason Roy was the standout performer for the Kolkata-based team in their encounter against RCB, as the right-handed batter smashed brilliant 56 runs from just 29 balls. Meanwhile, among bowlers, Varun Chakravarthy bagged three scalps for KKR. At the same time, Shubman Gill shined for GT in their clash against MI, hammering quickfire 56 runs off 34 deliveries. Noor Ahmad picked three wickets for Gujarat in the contest.

GT currently are on the second spot in the IPL 2023 points tally and will eye the top position when they meet KKR on Saturday. On the other hand, KKR sits at seventh place and will look to move up in the points table by winning against Gujarat.
