Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for match 42 of the IPL 2025 between RCB vs RR to be played in Bengaluru.

The revenge week in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 will feature another rematch between the two Royals. Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will host Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium on Thursday evening.

RCB won the previous game between the two sides. They have won all five away games this season, which has been impressive. But they have lost all three home games, which is a big concern going towards the playoffs.

Can they win their first home match of the season? RR have lost the last two games on the last ball of the matches. It looks like their confidence has been hurt badly. Captain Sanju Samson’s injury is another big concern for them as he is already ruled out of this game.
