U Mumba vs Dabang Delhi KC Match Preview: 

U Mumba have made an excellent start to their Pro Kabaddi League season 8 campaign as they convincingly defeated Bengaluru Bulls by 46-30 in a battle of champions. They are currently placed atop the points table.

Dabang Delhi KC also started with a win as they defeated Puneri Paltan by 41-30. Both sides would fight neck-neck to stay on/achieve the first spot on the points table in the early stages of the tournament. 

Both coaches may not consider making any changes in the winning combination. Although there are a lot of areas where these sides failed to excel in the first game. As a defender himself, coach Subramanian Rajaguru would have hated U Mumba’s raid oriented clash against Bengaluru. Their defensive department was overshadowed by the raiding masterclass of Abhishek Singh.

The Dabang Delhi too made quite a few errors in defence. The experienced Manjeet Chillar was found in the middle of unnecessary tackles multiple times against Puneri Paltan and their failure to bring Naveen Goyat back on court after he has been taken out are some of the key areas of concern.

U Mumba v Dabang Delhi KC Match Prediction:

Dabang Delhi KC will start as favourites to win this match against U Mumba. ‘The Naveen Express’ has emerged as an unstoppable raiding force in the Pro Kabaddi League. His 16 total points tally against Puneri Paltan suggests that his golden patch is still going on ever since his debut at PKL.

All eyes will be on U Mumba captain Fazel Atrachali who has to step up for this challenge. Fazel had an average individual outing against Bengaluru Bulls where he could make only one successful tackle. The consequences of this mini-battle will have a heavy influence on the outcome.
