They are placed fourth on the points table and need to win all their remaining games to stay within the top four. They lost their previous game against Mumbai Indians. 

CSK's thumping win against Punjab Kings have dropped them to the fourth position on the points table. They have played very well throughout the season and have a massive advantage of playing at home in their last three games. 

SRH will be playing their last three games at home and it is LSG whom they take on first on May 8, Wednesday. They are still very much in with a shout to make the playoffs. Playing at home in known conditions gives them an upper hand in playing for different oppositions accordingly.
