ABU DHABI: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) face off against Delhi Capitals (DC) to ensure a top two finish at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in their last league match here on Monday.

The two sides have 14 points each with RCB placed second due to their superior net run rate (NRR).

The winner will comfortably seal a playoff berth. However, it will not be the end of the road for the loser in technical terms, as the other permutations and combinations could push them through.

DC have suffered four defeats on the trot and have looked out of sorts in the latter half of season.

RCB also come into the game on the back of three back to back defeats. The Kohli-led side's strength lies with their batting, and in their last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) the top-order failed to click which led to them falling to a five-wicket loss.

The last time the two sides met earlier in the season, DC thrashed Kohli's men by a massive 59-run margin. IANS
