LIVE PKL 2019 | Match – 122 UP Yoddha vs Dabang Delhi KC
PKL
After the home leg of the Steelers in Panchkula, we have now travelled to Greater Noida where the UP Yoddha will play their home leg. They will want to get to the playoffs as soon as possible and for that they will want to start the leg on a good note against the neighbouring Dabang Delhi side.
All eyes will be on the Yoddha as they face the table-toppers in the first game in Greater Noida this season. Rishank Devadiga, Shrikant Jadhav and Surinder Gill will mostly be in the raiding department for them while it remains to be seen if they go ahead with Monu Goyat and any one between Gill and Devadiga sits out. Skipper Nitesh Kumar is back in form and with Sumit doing really well at the left corner, it will be important for the side to get some good tackle points.Â
Delhi have already made it to the semi-finals and they don’t have anything to win or lose. We might just see Krishan Kumar Hooda resting few of their senior players for this game and try out the youngsters. Naveen Kumar might be rested as well as they have two very important games to go in the season if they want to win the title and that is something that must be going in the mind of the coach at the moment.
Key players
Sumit
The left corner defender will have a bigger role to play if Delhi decide to continue with the same raiding combination. He will want to ensure that he is in a good form in the home leg as well and will play an important role from the very first day in Noida.
Naveen Kumar
He has been the key player for the table-toppers from the very first day and the Naveen Express will want to take the UP side by storm in the latter’s first home game.
