Their last match was against RCB in which they got a close defeat by 2 runs. KKR seems to be in slightly better form whereas CSK is finding its rhythm back.
The Eden Gardens pitch is good for both batting and bowling. Batting is easy at the beginning of the match but as the pitch slows down, the spinners come into the game. In many matches here the chasing team has won. The black soil pitch gives a little turn so spinners get an advantage. A score around 170 is normal but a target of 180+ is considered safe to win the match. Bowlers like Narine and Varun have always done well here.

Varun has taken 15 wickets in 11 matches with an economy rate of 7.23. His best performance was 3/22. He’s a key spinner for KKR and can pick up important wickets in the middle overs. Varun’s control over the ball makes him valuable.
Jadeja has been excellent, both with the bat and ball. He scored 77* in his last match and has 260 runs in 11 matches. His economy rate is 8.53, and he bowls well in the middle overs. Jadeja is a match-winner for CSK with his all-round skills.

Deepak Hooda is completely out of form this season and not only should you not bother to pick him in your team, Chennai Super Kings should also not give him any further chances in the league. His performance has gone from bad to worse this season with each passing game.
Ramandeep Singh was hyped up so much before this season but he has not been given chances to bat in most of the matches. However whenever he has got his chance to impress, he could only depress the fans this season.
