UP Yoddhas vs Tamil Thalaivas Match Prediction
Sumit and Nitesh Kumar were the top performers for the team against the Puneri Paltan, as the defensive duo picked up six and five points, respectively. However, Pardeep Narwal could only manage six points in the game as the team went down by nine points.
Tamil Thlaivas, on the other hand, have failed to play as a combined unit so far. Sagar and Sahil Gulia have led the defensive unit really well, but they have lacked support from the raiding department.
The team will be hoping for some more support from their star raiders, Narender Hoshiyar and Ajinkya Pawar, if they wish to defeat a comparatively stronger UP Yoddhas.
Prediction: UP Yoddhas to win the match.
