After failing to get their campaign off to a great good start, U Mumba will look to find their foothold when they face the newest entrants in the Pro Kabaddi League, the Haryana Steelers in match No.5 on July 30th, 2017 at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad.

U Mumba looked absolutely helpless against a raging Puneri Paltan side which was led by Deepak Niwas Hooda and the champions of the second season will need to be at their best to go past the defence pillars of Mohit Chhillar and Surender Nada at the Steelers.

Against the Paltan, the U Mumba defence looked shoddy although it played host to big names such as Hadi Oshtarak and Kuldeep Singh. Oshtarak, in particular, looked out of sorts and was substituted late into the first half while Kashiling Adake and Shabeer Bapu were not on top of their game.

The Steelers, led by Nada will be buoyed by the balance in their squad although the defence department will play a prominent role. The young raiders in the squad will look up to the experienced Wazir Singh, who will take charge of the raiding duties.

U Mumba vs Haryana Steelers prediction

Faltering in their first match would definitely have affected U Mumba but one can expect the Anup Kumar-led side to bounce back against a team that is set to play it's first ever game in PKL.

However, U Mumba will have to be wary of the defence corners in the Steelers squad, who made a name for themselves when they played at U Mumba. Mohit Chhillar and Surender Nada will look to cause problems for their ex-skipper Anup Kumar and with U Mumba already in some hot soup, the raiders will have to come good on the day.

Although the Steelers boast of a strong squad, the experience of the U Mumba squad might upstage that factor which could see Anup Kumar's side register their first win this season.
