Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) 2021-22: U Mumba vs Gujarat Giants Dream11 Prediction and Fantasy Tips

Bengaluru, January 17: U Mumba will take on Gujarat Giants in the second match of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) 2021 on Tuesday (January 18). The matches will be held at the Sheraton Grand, Whitefield, Bengaluru.

Both teams boast an array of experienced defenders, but it is their raiders who have won them matches in Season 8. U Mumba's Abhishek Singh looked good against Bengal Warriors while Rakesh S. has been the unsung hero for the Giants.

Gujarat Giants might boast an experienced defensive line-up, but it is their raider Rakesh S. who has won them valuable points in Season 8. He has been one of the emerging talents of the tournament and is slowly taking over the title of "Dubki king".

But in Fazel Atrachali and Rinku he will face an experienced corner duo. Both haven't shown their full potential in the tournament but will relish a challenge against Gujarat. If they can stop Rakesh, Gujarat can be beaten as their secondary raiders have struggled.

The return of Ajith Kumar will be a big relief for coach Rajaguru Subramanian. Mumbai struggled in the two games he was absent while his return has also taken some weight off Abhishek Singh's shoulders. Both teams will need to win the match to stay in the hunt for a playoff spot.
