Bengal Warriors
The Bengal Warriors have the best score difference of all the sides in the league and are a formidable raiding force. Maninder Singh is the highest raid point scorer for the side but the contribution of K Prapanjan and Mohammad Nabibakhsh should not be discounted either.
The three of them ensure that the Bengal Warriors also have someone to attack with and never give the opposition defense a chance to take a breather.
This trio will fancy itself against Dabang Delhi K.C.’s defense and be confident of forcing some errors.
Baldev Singh, Rinku Narwal, and Viraj Vishnu Langde are going to be tasked with stopping the strong raiding unit from Dabang Delhi K.C. It is not going to be easy but stopping Naveen Kumar is a must to win against Delhi.
Dabang Delhi K.C.
Five wins from six matches is an excellent record. A couple of those wins have been very close but the presence of Naveen Kumar has helped Dabang Delhi K.C. get over the line. The Delhi side has some very strong momentum behind it and a place in the semi-final looks well within reach at the moment.
We are going to be very interested in seeing how Naveen Kumar goes in this match. He has shown the ability to change his style of play according to the opposition and could be a bit more circumspect in this encounter.
The role of Chandran Ranjit as the second raider is very important especially as Meraj Sheykh has been a non-entity this season.
The defense is full of experience thanks to the presence of players like Joginder Narwal, Ravinder Pahal, Vishal Mane, and Saeid Ghaffari.
The head to head between these teams is very close. There have been 12 matches played between the Bengal Warriors and Dabang Delhi K.C. in the past with five of them being won by the Bengal Warriors, six by Dabang Delhi K.C. and one tie.
We think Dabang Delhi K.C. has found a nice balance and rhythm this season. Naveen Kumar is in great touch and stopping him is not going to be easy. The defense has a good record against Maninder Singh and will be confident of stopping him. The joker in the pack could Mohammad Nabibakhsh.
Bet on Dabang Delhi K.C. to win.
