Gujarat Giants are sitting third in the points tally with five wins and three losses after playing eight games. They have 28 points and are coming into this game on the back of two consecutive wins. Their most recent win came against Tamil Thalaivas by 33-30.
Giants, under the leadership of Fazel Atrachali, would be brimming with confidence after gaining a better spot in the table. They have Rakesh Sagroya in their raiding department with Fazel leading the defense unit.
On the other hand, Bengal Warriors are holding the eighth rank with three wins, as many losses, and two draws after playing eight encounters. They have bagged 22 points and will be eager to find consistency. They have bagged three losses and a tie in the last four encounters.

GUJ vs BEN Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Pro Kabaddi 2023, Match 49
Raider - Maninder Singh
Maninder Singh is the second-best raider in this campaign with 61 successful raids, just three less than the most successful raider Surender Gill. Maninder is known for his clever skills and exceptional timing with sharp instincts on the mat.
The 33-year-old veteran has amassed 78 raid points from 116 attempts with four super raids and as many super 10s. He has a 53% raid success rate with 9.75 average raid points per game.
Defender - Fazel Atrachali
The Iranian national team skipper Fazel Atrachali is having an impressive season with his defense for Gujarat Giants. The 31-year-old defender has accumulated 23 tackle points from 43 attempts and will be eyeing to have a better game in this upcoming clash.
With a 49% tackle success rate, two super tackles, and a High 5, the fearless and world-class Fazel would aim to finish this year on a high.
All-Rounder - Nitin Kumar
Nitin Kumar is the backup raider for the Bengal Warriors whenever Maninder Singh is off the mat. He has accumulated 55 raid points from 99 attempts at a 38% raid success rate with two super raids and two super 10s. Though he couldn’t create an impact in defense in recent games, he is a more-than-decent vice-captain to try out in your best seven.
