Gujarat will bank upon its strong defensive unit which has players like skipper Sunil Kumar, Parvesh Bhainswal and Ruturaj Koravi, all of them have been in a terrific form in this season so far. They will want a good contribution from the left corner defender Sachin Vittala as well to get a ticket for the finals. The Zone A toppers coached by Manpreet Singh will have expectations from their two top raiders Sachin and Prapanjan K while players like Rohit Gulia, Mahendra Ganesh Rajpoot, Ajay Chahal and Dong Geon Lee.

UP Yoddha will take the best revenge against Gujarat if they win this match and set up a summit clash with the Bulls in the final. Gujarat had earlier defeated UP in the Ahmedabad leg of the tournament as the home team came from behind to win 37 – 32 in the end. UP’s raiding department is completely dependent on the trio of Rishank Devadiga, Prashanth Rai and Shrikant Jadhav and they will look forward to dominating against the opponents in the virtual semi-final encounter today. Their defence has looked strong with Nitesh Kumar and Jeeva Kumar in the side and the winning momentum might just work in their favour as well and they would want to continue their eight-match winning streak to book the final date against Bengaluru.
