Dabang Delhi K.C managed to seal the playoff spot by winning their last league game against Bengal Warriors. The defending champions had a great start to the season, but midway through the league, they lost steam and struggled for victories. However the team managed to enter the playoffs and now aims for a spot in the semifinal.
Captain Naveen Kumar will hope to be at his best as he looks to add to his 246 raid points this season,. He is entering the contest on a good form, having picked up 16 raid points in his last outing. His form will be crucial to the team’s success. Meanwhile, Ashu Malik (135 raid points) has been the next best raider.
In defence, Vishal (58 tackle points) is their main weapon, while Krishan (34 tackle points) has also shown his potential. The experienced Sandeep Dhull (30 tackle points) and Amit Hooda (29 tackle points) have also shone with their tackles in recent games.

UP Yoddhas vs Tamil Thalaivas
Tamil Thalaivas meanwhile started the season on a very poor note as they managed just a solitary victory in the first leg of the tournament in Bengaluru. They faced a big blow in their first ever game of the season that saw their skipper Pawan Sehrawat suffering an injury that saw him stretchered off the mat. He was ruled out of the entire season soon. There was also a change in coaching personnel as coach Udhayakumar withdrew himself from the league after the first leg. Ashan Kumar was appointed as the team’s new coach and this move paid rich dividends as the team made a terrific comeback in the season.
They started winning consistently and slowly and steadily rose up in the points table. Raiders Narender Hoshiyar and Ajinkya Pawar put in memorable performances as they collected 220 and 114 raid points respectively. In defence, Sagar and Sahil Gulia picked up 53 and 51 tackle points respectively as these performances helped the team enter the playoff for the first time in the history of the league.
