UP vs PAT Dream11 prediction: Today's match predicted playing 7s for UP Yoddhas vs Patna Pirates Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 29
The UP Yoddhas (UP) and the Patna Pirates (PAT) face off in the 29th match of Pro Kabaddi 2024 on Saturday, November 2, at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium in Hyderabad.
The Yoddhas come into this match after a close 28-30 defeat at the hands of the Haryana Steelers. However, they've still made a pretty solid start to the season, with three wins in five matches, and are placed third on the points table.
Meanwhile, the Pirates bounced back from a 26-28 defeat to the Titans really strongly, decimating Dabang Delhi KC with a scoreline of 44-30. With Super 10s from their young raiding duo of Ayan and Devank, Patna will look to carry this momentum into the next match.

UP vs PAT Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 29
Raider - Bharat Hooda
Bharat has been in scintillating form this season, scoring 44 raid points in five matches, and despite a disappointing outing against the Steelers, he'll look to do better against this Patna defensive unit. However, he isn't a must-have per se, with Devank, Ayan, Surender Gill, and Bhavani Rajput all decent alternatives as well.
Defender - Sumit
Sumit is currently the second-best defender in PKL 11, having scored 20 tackle points in five matches. His consistency has been unmatched so far, and against the Pirates who have a good set of right raiders, Sumit's tackle point tally should only increase after this match.
He is definitely a Dream11 must-have and a captaincy option for this match.
All-Rounder - Ankit
Ankit is easily the best Dream11 all-rounder pick for this match, and is clearly ahead of the other cover defenders who have also been classified as all-rounders. He has started this season really strongly, scoring 16 tackle points in four matches, and has delivered in every match for the Pirates.
He's a Dream11 must-have in this fixture.

UP vs PAT Expert Tips for Pro Kabaddi 2024
The Yoddhas may have had a better start to the season, but the unpredictable Patna Pirates certainly have the explosiveness in their raiding unit and some steel in their defense to cause them problems. It'd take a bold person to back either team to the hilt and pick more than four players from any one team in their Dream11 side.
There are quite a few viable picks to choose from, with the likes of Mahender Singh, Ayan, and Sahul Kumar good differentials heading into this match.
Captaincy wise, it's Bharat, Sumit, Ankit, and Devank who stand out.
