In their previous match against Rajasthan Royals, Dinesh Karthik led from the front with a career-best 97 not out to set a challenging 176 target. However, their pacers came a cropper and the visitors secured a thrilling three-wicket win.
Starting at elimination, KKR would hope for their batting and bowling to click as a unit with just three matches to go.
At the moment nothing is going in favour of the Shah Rukh Khan-owned franchise, something that reminds of their disastrous show in 2009 when the team lost nine in a row, in a 10-match winless run.
This will be KKR's last home match of the season and the team will look to win it for the fans who have come in huge numbers and packed the stadium in every match.
Mumbai Indians are one win away from assuring their last-four berth and the side would look to take advantage of the psycological pressure on KKR.
Mumbai on Friday thrashed Chennai Super Kings at Chepauk and the team would be high on confience with all-round show from the side.
Rohit Sharma is in good nick and addition of Evin Lewis has only strenthened the batting. Krunal and Hardik Pandya remains the backbone of the team with their contribution with the bat and the ball and they would be the key players for the team at Eden Gardens.
In the pace-battery, Mumbai have death-over experts Laith Malinga and Jasprit Bumrah and they have the support of Rahul Chahar from spin department.
In all likelihood, if Andre Russell shines for KKR, Mumbai will have a tough time otherwise the visitors can get the better of the home team easily.
Here are the playing 11 Probable
