Both Sunrisers and KKR finished their league engagements on 16 points each but the Gautam Gambhir-led side ended fourth behind Sunrisers due to inferior net run rate.

But going into the game, KKR have psychological advantage over the Sunrisers having beaten them on both the occasions during the league stage.
