Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals lock horns in the Indian Premier League in Abu Dhabi on Monday with the knowledge that any more slip-up could dash their slim playoff hopes.
Both CSK and RR have struggled to gain momentum so far and are placed seventh and eighth on the points table in the eight-team competition.
The two struggling teams have six points from nine games, but the defending champions are placed above based on net run-rate.
With just five matches each remaining for both the teams, the road ahead is definitely going to be a tough and tricky one, and they know they cannot afford any more lapses from hereon.
Both teams lost their respective last matches on Saturday. While the Mahendra Singh Dhoni-led side lost to table toppers Delhi Capitals by five wickets, Rajasthan Royals were defeated by seven wickets by Royal Challengers Bangalore.
The blow for CSK is bigger as their influential all-rounder, Dwayne Bravo, has been ruled out for at least a few days due to a groin injury.
