Punjab had defeated CSK by 18 runs in their previous meeting this season. With only one victory in their last five home games, CSK haven't had a fantastic home record lately.

CSK have struggled this season, and are currently languishing at the last spot in the points table with just two victories from nine games played. Their chances of finishing in the top four appear slim. CSK have won 16 matches in their 31 IPL encounters against PBKS, who have won 15 times. This also includes victories in Super Overs. In Chennai, PBKS have had four victories and as many losses against CSK.
