Welcome to our DC vs GT betting tips guide — your complete IPL betting guide 2026 for today's fixture. Check out our DC vs GT match prediction for a full breakdown of what to expect, and read on for the best DC vs GT best bets and DC vs GT safe bets today.
Delhi Capitals head into this fixture on the back of two impressive wins, largely thanks to Sameer Rizvi's explosive batting. The youngster has been sensational, rescuing DC from tough positions in both matches. However, Nitish Rana at number three has been a concern, with two low-impact innings putting him under pressure to deliver.
Gujarat Titans, meanwhile, are winless. Their top order of Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan, and Jos Buttler keeps giving them solid starts, but the middle order repeatedly collapses. Since IPL 2025, their numbers four to seven have the lowest batting average in the competition. Captain Gill returns after missing the last game due to neck spasms, which is a significant boost for the Titans in this DC vs GT IPL 2026 fixture.
With the pitch at Arun Jaitley Stadium typically producing high scores and the death-overs run rate touching 12.67, expect plenty of boundaries. Pre-match rain could keep things lively early on for the seamers.
Gujarat Titans hold a slight upper hand in the head-to-head with four wins from seven matches, including back-to-back victories over Delhi last season. At Arun Jaitley Stadium, Gujarat have won two of the three head-to-head matches against the Capitals.

Match Winner
Delhi Capitals to Win @ 1.75 (Stake)
Delhi Capitals are unbeaten this season with two wins from two matches, while the Titans are winless with two losses. The Capitals have better batting and bowling depth than Gujarat Titans, and we are backing Delhi to win this match and extend their unbeaten run this season.
Total Match Sixes
Over 17.5 @ 1.85 (1xBet)
The last three matches between Gujarat Titans and Delhi Capitals have been high-scoring encounters, with an average of 22 total sixes per match. The last time these two teams faced off at Arun Jaitley Stadium, the total sixes hit in the match was 21. Expect another high six-hitting contest and back the total sixes to come in over 17.5.
Best Opening Partnership
Gujarat Titans to Have a Better Opening Partnership Than DC @ 1.94 (Parimatch)
The opening duo of Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan averaged 110 runs for the first wicket last season and added 37 runs for the first wicket against Punjab Kings. Delhi Capitals' opening pair of KL Rahul and Pathum Nissanka have failed to put on even 10 runs for the first wicket in either of their last two matches. Given the current form of both opening pairs, we back Gujarat Titans to produce the better first-wicket partnership.
Why Arun Jaitley Stadium Suits Certain Bet Types
Arun Jaitley Stadium is one of the highest-scoring venues in the IPL, where short square boundaries aid the batters significantly. The recent matches between Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans at this venue have been particularly high-scoring, with the average total match score across the last two meetings here standing at 424 runs.
We back the Total Match Score Over 370.5 @ 1.85 (1xBet). The venue data strongly supports another run-feast, and with both batting lineups capable of posting big totals, this is a well-supported pick for today's fixture.
DC vs GT Powerplay Betting Tips & Stats
DC vs GT powerplay betting is one of the most popular markets for this fixture. The IPL 2026 powerplay stats below highlight key trends at Arun Jaitley Stadium.
Delhi Capitals have posted an average powerplay score of 52.5 in their last six innings at Arun Jaitley Stadium. They have gone past 50 runs three times in that stretch, with a best of 72, while falling below 50 on three occasions. Looking at the last 10 powerplay scores at this venue across all teams, the average stands at 55.45, with scores ranging from a low of 35 to a high of 79.
Delhi Capitals are averaging just 37.5 runs in the powerplay overs this season, scoring 42 runs in the last match and 33 against LSG before that. In both matches they lost at least one wicket inside the first three overs.
Gujarat Titans, by contrast, have started well in the powerplay, averaging 55 runs per match this season, posting 56 and 54 in their last two games. Over the last two seasons, the Titans scored over 58 runs in both their matches at Arun Jaitley Stadium, averaging 63 runs at this venue in the powerplay.
- Delhi Capitals to Score Over 55.5 in 6 Overs @ 1.85 (Stake)
- Gujarat Titans to Score Over 54.5 in 6 Overs @ 1.85 (Stake)
| Stat | DC | GT | IPL 2026 Avg |
|---|---|---|---|
| Avg PP score (batting) | 37.5 | 55 | 65 |
| PP score at Arun Jaitley Stadium | 42 | 63 | 42 |
DC Powerplay Form vs GT Powerplay Form
Gujarat Titans have been excellent in the powerplay overs this season, while Delhi Capitals have been slow to get off the blocks in both matches. We back the Gujarat Titans to dominate in the powerplay overs and back them to outscore Delhi Capitals in the first 6 overs @ 1.97 (Parimatch).
10-Over Session Bets — What to Back at the Halfway Mark
The scoring rate tends to dip a touch after the powerplay at Arun Jaitley Stadium, with teams averaging around 88 at the 10-over mark across the last 10 innings at the venue. This suggests the 7–10 phase is typically one of consolidation, with batters adding roughly 7.8 runs per over during that period. These IPL 2026 session bets are well supported by the venue data.
However, things pick up considerably from overs 11–15, where the average score jumps to 136, pointing to a scoring rate of nearly 12 runs per over as teams look to shift gears heading into the death.
This season across all venues, Delhi Capitals are averaging 75 runs at the 10-over mark, scoring at 7.5 runs per over. Gujarat Titans have been scoring at 9.62 runs per over between the same phases.
The real issue for the Titans, however, has been between overs 11–15, where they tend to lose their way, as seen in both their matches this season where they lost too many wickets despite maintaining a scoring rate of around 10 runs per over.
Delhi Capitals tend to lift their scoring rate from 7.5 to 10.3 runs per over in the final powerplay phase — a significant improvement. Given this, backing Delhi Capitals' total for the 15-over session is a safer play than the 10-over session.
- DC Over 80.5 in the First 10 Overs @ 1.90 (Parimatch)
| Over Range | Typical Score (1st Inns) | Key Variable | Our Line |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–6 (PP) | 50–55 | Opener form | Over 54.5 |
| 0–10 combined | 75–85 | Spinners will contain runs | Over 80.5 |
| 0–15 | 120–130 | Wickets in hand | Update on match day |
