MUM vs UP Dream11 prediction: 3 players you can pick as captain or vice-captain for today’s Pro Kabaddi League match – December 15, 2024
UP Yoddhas will play against U Mumba in the 114th match of Pro Kabaddi League 2024 on December 15. The Yoddhas can inch a step closer to the playoffs if they beat the Mumbai-based franchise at the Balewadi Sports Complex.
As of December 14, the UP Yoddhas hold the sixth position in the Pro Kabaddi League 2024 points table. They have 59 points from 18 matches, and they are undefeated in their last five matches.
Even U Mumba are firm contenders for a place in the next round. The Mumbai-based franchise hold the fourth spot in the Pro Kabaddi League 2024 points table, having earned 60 points from 18 matches. U Mumba will aim to win their remaining four league matches and secure a direct ticket to the semifinals.
Ahead of the high-stakes battle between UP Yoddhas and U Mumba, here's a list of three players Dream11 users can pick as captain or vice-captain in the fantasy contests.
#1 Ajit Chouhan, U Mumba
Left raider Ajit Chouhan has scored the most raid points for U Mumba in Pro Kabaddi League 2024. He holds the fifth position on the raiders' leaderboard with 153 raid points from 18 matches. In U Mumba's last game against the Tamil Thalaivas, Ajit scored 10 points.
Ajit will hold the key to success for U Mumba in the upcoming match. Opposition defenders have found it extremely challenging to keep him down. Considering that Ajit is among the top 5 raiders this season, he will be a reliable choice for captaincy or vice-captaincy in the fantasy contests.
#2 Gagan Gowda, UP Yoddhas
Youngster Gagan Gowda has been a consistent performer for the UP Yoddhas in their last few Pro Kabaddi League 2024 matches. Gowda scored 11 points to help the Yoddhas play out a 31-31 tie against the Bengal Warriorz in the 108th match.
While U Mumba's defense has performed much better than the Bengal Warriorz's defense in Pro Kabaddi League 2024, Gagan can be backed to score big against the Mumbai-based franchise. His confidence will be on a whole other level after his impressive performances in recent games. Thus, he is our top choice from UP Yoddhas for captaincy or vice-captaincy in fantasy contests.
#3 Hitesh, UP Yoddhas
Young defender Hitesh has had a breakthrough season with the UP Yoddhas in PKL 2024. The youngster has earned 55 tackle points from 18 matches this season, and he has ensured that the Yoddhas do not miss their former captain Nitesh Kumar in the right corner position.
Hitesh has been the most successful defender among all players participating in the U Mumba vs UP Yoddhas match. Even when the Yoddhas took on U Mumba in the 45th match of the tournament, Hitesh scored four points and was his side's best defender.
Looking at his top form in recent games, Hitesh will be an excellent option for captaincy or vice-captaincy in fantasy contests. He can be the game-changer for Dream11 users in the upcoming match
