Today's PKL Match Prediction
The Raiders of Patna Pirates did a tremendous job against the Steelers and won the game. However, the same cannot be said about their defense. For UP Yoddha, their raiding trio let them down against the Warriors.
However, given the quality the Yoddhas have in their attack, it might be a difficult task for the Pirates to stop them. Moreover, the Yoddhas have a defense to neutralize the attacking threat of the Pirates.
The Pirates have to elevate their game in both departments to win this contest as the Yoddhas will come hard at them in search of their first win.
Prediction: UP Yoddha are expected to win this game.
