The Telugu Titans will square off against the Haryana Steelers in the 18th match of the Pro Kabaddi League 2021 on Tuesday.
The Telugu Titans are yet to register their first win of the season as they sit 11th in the league standings with one tied game and one loss after two matches. The Titans shared points in the first game after playing a thrilling 40-40 tie with Tamil Thalaivas. In the second game, they lost 33-34 to Puneri Paltan in a nail-biter.
The Haryana Steelers, too, have had a rough start to the season. They languish at the bottom of the Pro Kabaddi points table after losing their first two matches. The Steelers lost their opening game 39-42 to the Patna Pirates, while the Jaipur Pink Panthers defeated them 40-38 in the second game.

Today's PKL Match Prediction
The Telugu Titans are failing to close out matches despite being ahead in the game for the majority of the time. In the first game, they let the Thalaivas come back, and the script didn't change against Puneri Paltan as well.
Siddharth Desai is not getting any support in the attack, and it is a significant issue for the Titans to resolve.
Meanwhile, the Haryana Steelers have so far failed to hold on to their nerves at crucial times. The raiders and defenders have done well, but they have also been guilty of giving away unnecessary points at the wrong time.
If the Steelers can work on their naive mistakes, they will go back with their first win of the season.
Prediction: Haryana Steelers are expected to win this game.
