The match starts at 8.30pm IST and will be shown live on Star Sports with live streaming available on Hotstar.

With three wins and two ties, UP Yoddha are in the wrong end of the table and that's mainly because of their inconsitency. But, with the inclusion of senior player Rishank Devadiga, they have upped their game.
Attention all passengers, Naveen Express is set to depart in #DELvUP tonight. Will it continue to move with momentum?

All said and done, a nerve-wracking contest is on the cards. Be ready for an edge-of-the-seat thriller.
