Mumbai have brought in Dhawal Kulkarni in place of Yuzvendra Chahal, while Bangalore have left out an ill Murali Kartik and replaced him with Syed Mohammed.
It will be imperative for Mumbai to get Chris Gayle early if they are to continue their winning momentum, after the positive result against Kolkata Knight Riders.
For the record, Gayle had smashed his way to the fastest century in the history of T20 cricket in his team's massive win over Pune Warriors. And the strapping Jamaican has it in him to do an encore once more.
With Gayle in such roaring form, no total can be called safe, and that is why Mumbai would look to score as many as possible.
Dwayne Smith and Rohit Sharma engineered Mumbai to a morale-boosting win over Kolkata in their last away match. But Sachin Tendulkar failed to rise to the occasion on his 40th birthday, and the veteran batsman will look to make up for that.
The five-wicket win over Kolkata would have surely boosted Mumbai's confidence, as it came after two heavy defeats -- to Rajasthan Royals by 87 runs and Delhi Daredevils by nine wickets.
On the other hand, Bangalore, especially Gayle, would look to continue from where he had left the other day. He is leading the run charts with 432 runs.
RCB captain Virat Kohli, too, has been in good form with 333 runs, while AB de Villiers has been the perfect foil to both Gayle and Kohli, scoring quick runs towards the end.
Pacers R Vinay Kumar and Ravi Rampaul have been outstanding, especially in the absence of Zaheer Khan.
