Match Analysis

Puneri Paltan

A thrilling one-point victory against the Telugu Titans saw Puneri Paltan get on the board. It was an encouraging performance as some new names stood out and helped the team grab the victory. Among the raiders, it was Aslam Inamdar and Mohit Goyat that scored the most points ahead of past champions like Rahul Chaudhary or Nitin Tomar ( who did not play at all). Equally impressive was the defense that stood an onslaught from Siddharth Desai and came away victorious. Abhishek Nadarajan and Vishal Bhardwaj stood out as the best in this aspect.

There is certainly a lot for Puneri Paltan to build on as the PKL 2021-22 season progresses.

Patna Pirates

The Patna Pirates fell one point short against UP Yoddha in their previous match and would have felt a bit disappointed with that performance. There were quite a few errors from the defense and the raiders also did not do justice to their talent. Monu Goyat and Prashanth Kumar Rai are among the elite raiders of PKL and would certainly want to do better tis time around. Having Sachin as a backup raider also adds a lot of depth to their offense.

Among the defense, Mohammadreza was the standout performer and his good form will raise some hopes for the Patna Pirates moving forward.

Key stat

Puneri Paltan has the least number of successful tackles (64) in the entire Pro Kabaddi League 2021-22 season at this stage in the tournament. The Patna Pirates have the highest average number of points scored (38.5), something that shows how good its attack has been.

Verdict

We are going to bet on the Patna Pirates to win this match. They have a much stronger and more experienced raiding unit and while their defense has been struggling, there were a few positive signs for them to work with. Puneri Paltan is not going to be a pushover in this match but we think it will fall short of actually getting a win.

Bet on Patna Pirates to win.
