Sunday’s late-season clash between Gujarat Titans and Chennai Super Kings at the Narendra Modi Stadium will draw eyeballs for very different reasons. Gujarat sits on 18 points after 12 outings and remains top of the 2025 table. Chennai, marooned on six points with a net run rate that has dipped below -1.000, have already been knocked out of the playoff race. Yet the fixture still matters. The Titans must win to guarantee a top-two finish and the valuable double bite at the finals, while the five-time champions from Chennai are playing for pride, future contracts, and perhaps the chance to spoil another team’s finishing position.

Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings Match Preview
Gujarat’s campaign has been powered by a prolific top three. Sai Sudharsan owns the Orange Cap on 638 runs and needs just 36 more to break the franchise record for a single season. Captain Shubman Gill is only two runs behind on 636 and continues to strike above 150, while Jos Buttler has ed 500. The Titans also boast the Purple Cap leader. Prasidh Krishna has collected 21 wickets with an economy a touch above 8.00 and is ed by Rashid Khan’s leg-spin and Gerald Coetzee’s brisk pace.
Chennai’s season, by contrast, has been grim. Three wins from 13 matches include defeats in four of their last five, the most recent a six-wicket defeat against Rajasthan Royals after posting 187. Runs have dried up for MS Dhoni’s group, and the experiment of shifting Rahul Tripathi to number three has yielded patchy results. The one bright spark is Afghan left-arm spinner Noor Ahmad, whose 21 wickets keep him right with Krishna in the race for the Purple Cap. Chennai have also unearthed teenager Ayush Mhatre, but pockets of promise have not translated into points.
Betting Insights
Markets reflect the gulf in form and motivation. In the win line, the Titans are offered at 1.49 at Dafabet, while Super Kings trade at 2.64.
- Top batsman market: Gill 3.75, Sudharsan 3.90, Buttler 5.10
- Top bowler market: Rabada 5.60, Pathirana 6.00, Krishna 6.60, Siraj 6.60
Punters wary of short match odds may look at team totals. Gujarat have topped 185 in seven of their last nine innings on this ground, while Chennai have conceded 180 or more in five of their last six matches.

Gujarat Titans vs Chennai Super Kings Prediction
All indicators point to a Titans victory. They dominate every major statistical column, own home advantage, and have a clear incentive with a top-two berth still on the line. Their batting depth is superior, and the presence of both the leading run-scorer and wicket-taker gives them match-winners in each discipline. Chennai’s bowling has relied heavily on Noor Ahmad, and if the left-armer does not strike early, the Titans are likely to run away with the contest.
Final call: Gujarat Titans to win, Krishna to take two or more wickets, and Sudharsan to top the run chart. A same-game multi built around those outcomes returns attractive value at current prices.
