Royal Challengers, Bangalore

Mumbai won a pulsating thriller, but didn't have much to celebrate after being knocked out of the race for a semi-final spot.

According to current form, this is the most high-profile clash of Group B, with both teams looking in ominous touch.

Chennai's massive win highlighted the difference that exists amongst the domestic structures of teams from various countries.

Mark Boucher played a neat little cameo after Rusty Theron had given a masterful display of T20 bowling to take the Warriors to a comfortable win against Wayamba.

More than any other team, the Royal Challengers Bangalore are driven by momentum. With a thumping win in their first match, they've taken a significant step towards a good run.

The Redbacks backed up a good batting display with efficient bowling and gave themselves the perfect start to the tournament.

For the first time in the short history of the Champions League, a heavyweight IPL team emphatically lived up to its 'favourites' billing - and did it in some style.

It was in South Africa in 2009 that Bangalore's resurgence as a T20 side began, and they are now in the position of being favourites against Guyana.

The two teams look evenly matched on paper, but with the Warriors playing on home ground, they will start as slight favourites for the match.

Chennai go into the match as favourites, but they will be aware that in this format anything is possible and pre-match titles don't count for much.
