While the head-to-head record between the two sides stands at 1-1, the Capitals will start as heavy favorites.
DC are currently on a two-game winning streak, boasting a well-balanced team with a potent bowling attack led by Marizanne Kapp and a strong batting lineup bolstered by the arrival of Jess Jonassen.
Top-order batters - Meg Lanning, Shafali Verma, and Alice Capsey - are currently in red hot forms as well. DC would hope that Jemimah Rodrigues also joins the party soon.
Delhi's current form and overall team strength make them strong favorites to extend their winning streak. However, cricket is a game of uncertainties, and a determined Gujarat outfit, desperate to break their losing streak, could spring a surprise.
