Kolkata Knight Riders will take on Rajasthan Royals at the Eden Gardens in the 43rd match of IPL 2019 on April 25. Keep reading to find out the IPL 2019 Match 43 KKR vs RR Match Prediction.

KKR has lost its way big time as the Dinesh Karthik-led side has lost 5 matches in a row. It was so very unexpected from a team that was dominating initially. They now have 8 points with 4 wins and 6 losses. Even though they are still in contention for playoffs, they need to raise their game massively to inflict a turnaround.

On the other hand, RR’s indifferent season continues. They lost their last game against Delhi Capitals despite performing well. RR is languishing at No.8 on the points table. They have to win all their remaining matches to even stay in contention. But against KKR in their own backyard, it’s going to be tough to get over the hosts.
