Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals match prediction 27th match

Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals | Three deals to make you rich this Sunday evening

Both teams are enjoying an impeccable form at the moment, with Delhi Capitals at the pole position in the points table with 12 points from six matches, closely followed by Mumbai Indians, with 10 points in as many matches. A win for either will keep them at the top of the points table (with Mumbai Indians having a much superior net run rate) and inch them closer to the knock-out stages of the ongoing 2020 Indian Premier League. Whatever the result, we are in for a treat this Sunday evening, with the top two teams colluding at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium, in Abu Dhabi.

To double the fun, I have already assorted the top-three guaranteed team bets from the market and listed below. Just go through my analysis and invest your money accordingly to get lucrative returns by the end of the match.

Mumbai Indians - Total fours over 12.5 @ 1.69 (Sportsbet.io)

This is by far one of the safest bets in the market for the upcoming match, with Mumbai Indians having enough players to hit at least 13 boundaries in the upcoming season. In the six matches they have played so far, the IPL side has registered a total of 84 boundaries (15, 13, 6, 17, 15, 18) this season, having struck at least 13 in five of those matches. And guess what? Mumbai Indians are not making a statement for the first time, with them hitting 230 boundaries, at a rate of 14.37 hits per match.

In the last five H2H matches between these two sides, Mumbai Indians have struck a total of 78 boundaries (14, 20, 10, 19, 15), averaging 15.6 hits per match, hitting at least 13 in four of those matches. In the four matches played in Abu Dhabi so far, the team from Mumbai have hit a total of 63 boundaries (15, 13, 17, 18) - at a rate of 15.75 hits per match, having struck at least 13 in each of those games. With all the evidence pointing to one direction, we are not expecting Mumbai Indians to hit less than 13 boundaries this Sunday evening.

Mumbai Indians - Total sixes over 6.5 @ 2.08 (Sportsbet.io)

Like the previous market, we cannot ignore Mumbai Indians for this one too, with the team boasting of too many big hitters in their line-up. So far in the six matches played, they have hit a total of 61 sixes (4, 9, 16, 10, 14, 8), at a rate of 10.16 per match, having hit at least seven in four of the above-mentioned matches. Even in the previous edition of the Indian Premier League, the side notched up 115 sixes in 16 matches, averaging 7.18 hits per matches, which is pretty impressive and also fulfills our criteria.

In the last five H2H matches between these two sides, Mumbai Indians have registered a total of 39 sixes (6, 6, 9, 7, 11), averaging 7.8 hits per match, having piled up at least 7 hits in three of those games. Having played four matches at the venue so far this season, Mumbai have mustered 31 sixes (4, 9, 10, 8), striking at a rate of 7.75 hits per match, with them hitting at least 7 in three of the games. With batsmen like Rohit Sharma, Quinton de Kock and Keiron Pollard in the squad, Mumbai Indians are bound to hit at least seven sixes in the upcoming game.

Total Opening partnership - Delhi Capitals over 24.5 runs @ 1.87 (Leo Vegas)

Even though the openers have not performed as per expectations this season, scoring just 25 runs for the opening stand would not be a huge problem for the side. In the six matches played so far this season, the first wicket stand yielded - 6, 94, 2, 56, 68, 12, having scored 238 runs, at a rate of 39.66 runs before the fall of the first wicket, having registered at least 25 runs in three of those matches. Their two openers - Prithvi Shaw and Shikhar Dhawan averages 33.00 and 22.00 this season, which pretty much proves they can stitch up 24 runs.

In the last four H2H matches between these two sides, Delhi Capitals' opening stands read - 49, 10, 30, 50 - having racked up 136 runs, at a rate of 34 runs per match before the fall of the first wicket, with the opening pair scoring at least 25 runs in three of the above-mentioned matches. On the other hand, Mumbai Indians have conceded 172 runs in six matches, shipping at a rate of 28.66 runs per innings for the first wicket, having let in at least 25 runs in three of those matches. I hope you have placed the bet by now.
