In match 38 of the ongoing IPL 2026, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will host Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium on April 26. Both teams are currently struggling in the tournament and will be eager to secure a much-needed win.
LSG, led by Rishabh Pant, have had a disappointing campaign so far. The team is placed ninth on the points table, having won just two out of their seven matches. Their recent form has been particularly concerning, with the side losing four matches in a row.
On the other hand, KKR are currently at the bottom of the table. They have managed only one win in seven games. That victory came against the Rajasthan Royals on April 19, which ended their six-match winless streak.
While that win brought some relief, KKR still have a lot to improve if they want to stay competitive in the tournament.
As the excitement is buzzing for the LSG vs KKR clash. In this article, let’s take a look at the head-to-head record between the teams for match 38 of the ongoing IPL 2026.
