IPL 2024: Match 43, DC vs MI Match Prediction – Who will win today’s IPL match between DC vs MI?

Delhi Capitals (DC) continue their ongoing IPL 2024 campaign by taking on Mumbai Indians (MI). Both sides will lock horns at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, in game 43 on Saturday, April 27. The last time these two sides faced each other was at the Wankhede stadium for the 20th match of the season which MI won by 29 runs.

With four wins and five losses, DC finds itself in the sixth position in the standings. Though the side had a shaky start, they still are in contention for qualifying for the playoffs. The Delhi-based franchise is coming off a narrow four-run win over Gujarat Titans. However, the side will aim to climb the table with a win against Mumbai. 

On the other hand, Mumbai Indians sit in eighth place in the standings with three wins in eight matches. The five-time champion side’s campaign has looked terrible, and they will aim to improve with a win and hopefully climb the standings, staying in the race for the playoffs. The Hardik Pandya-led side is coming off a nine-wicket defeat against the Rajasthan Royals in their last game.
