Today's PKL Match Prediction
Jaipur Pink Panthers completely failed on the attacking front against Gujarat Giants. Deepak Hooda and Nitin Rawal could not score enough raid points, and Arjun Deshwal fought a lone battle. The defense was underwhelming, given that Gujarat Giants don't have a strong raiding unit.
Meanwhile, the Haryana Steelers slipped at the wrong time in their game against the Pirates. They did a decent job on defense as two of their defenders returned with five points. However, their star raider Vikash Khandola had an off day, leading to their defeat.
The hopes of the Panthers majorly rely on the shoulders of Deepak Hooda. If the Steelers manage to contain Deepak Hooda, their attack could easily dismantle the opposition's defense.
Prediction: Haryana Steelers are expected to win this contest.
