Today's PKL Match Prediction
The raiding duo of Abhishek Singh and V Ajith have been breathing fire for U Mumba in the attack. However, their defense is leaking way too many points at the moment. Moreover, Fazel Atrachali's form is a huge cause of concern for the Mumba boys.
At the same time, the Bengal Warriors' attack has turned into a one-man show. While the Warriors' defense produced a complete team effort in the previous fixture, Maninder Singh is still not getting any support in the attack. It could turn fatal for the defending champions in this must-win fixture.
Prediction: U Mumba are expected to win this contest.
