Rajasthan Royals will turn up against table-leaders Chennai Super Kings in Saturday's second match which is set to take place in Abu Dhabi. The beleaguered Royals will be under great pressure as they desperately need to beat the Yellow Army to stay relevant in the game. They are currently placed 7th in the IPL points table with just 4 wins out of 11 games. The Sanju Samson-led team has only won one game in the UAE-leg of this year's IPL.

Standing tall against them is Chennai. The team has won 9 games out of 11 and with an emphatic 6-wicket win over SRH, they have already booked their berth in the playoffs.
The head-to-head statistics also favour Dhoni's side. Chennai has defeated Rajasthan 15 out of 24 times they have faced each other. Even in this year's India-leg, Chennai registered victory.
