U Mumba and U.P. Yoddha will face off in the 95th fixture of Pro Kabaddi 2019 at the Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex in Pune.

The Yoddha are currently enjoying a five-match winning streak and have made their way into the top six as they have eight wins from 15 matches. They will be keen on maintaining their momentum when they step on to the mat against U Mumba.

U Mumba, on the other hand, will be coming into this competition on the back of a 29-26 loss at the hands of the Bengal Warriors and will eye a win that could potentially take them on to the 5th position in the points table.

These two teams have already met once this season in a game that saw the Yoddha register a thrilling 27-23 win over their rivals and with both teams seeking an important win, we could be in for an exciting clash on the cards.


U Mumba Team News

U Mumba have more or less relied on the raiding trio of Abhishek Singh, Arjun Deshwal and Rohit Baliyan to bring about the points while on the defensive front, skipper Fazel Atrachali, Sandeep Narwal and Surinder Singh have cemented their place in the side. Yet, Harendra Kumar has not put up too many impressive performances off late and could make way from Young Chang Ko.

Predicted Starting 7: Fazel Atrachali (C), Abhishek Singh, Rohit Baliyan, Arjun Deshwal, Surinder Singh, Sandeep Narwal, Young Chang Ko


U.P. Yoddha Team News

One of the biggest positives for the Yoddha this season is that they have stuck to the core of players who have done well and this has gone a long way in bringing about a string of wins. Expect the Yoddha to go in with the same starting 7 from their previous win today.

Predicted Starting 7: Nitesh Kumar (C), Rishank Devadiga, Shrikant Jadhav, Surender Gill, Amit, Sumit, Ashu Singh.


Dream11 Fantasy Tips

Raiders: Shrikant Jadhav has been in scintillating form for the Yoddha and has picked up 49 points from the last five games. Jadhav's form has been a major driving force behind the Yoddha's success and he could be expected to come good in this game as well.

Surender Gill and Arjun Deshwal, who have essayed their role as secondary raiders for their sides this season extremely well will also be important picks, given their ability to pick up a couple of crucial points.

All-Rounders: From the all-rounders' section, Rishank Devadiga will be the lone pick. Primarily a raider, Rishank has not looked in the best of form but given his experience, the lanky raider can be a game-changer against his former team.

Defenders: The two captains from this game, U Mumba's Fazel Atrachali and U.P. Yoddha's Nitesh Kumar will be priority picks from the defenders' section. Nitesh, in particular, is in top form as he has 20 points from the last five games, including two High 5s.

U Mumba skipper Fazel Atrachali has led the defensive unit this season with 52 points from the last 15 games and has two High 5s from the last five games which makes him an asset to this side.

For the final choice, Yoddha's star defender Sumit makes the cut, with the youngster having impressed in his debut season thus far. The left corner defender has 50 points from 15 matches and is a must-have in this side, given his fearless defending.

Fantasy Suggestion #1: Shrikant Jadhav (C), Arjun Deshwal, Surender Gill, Rishank Devadiga (VC), Fazel Atrachali, Sumit, Nitesh Kumar.

Fantasy Suggestion #2: Shrikant Jadhav (VC), Abhishek Singh (C), Surender Gill, Rishank Devadiga, Fazel Atrachali, Sumit, Ashu Singh.
