MUM vs PUN Dream11 Prediction: Welcome to the 52nd match of the Pro Kabbadi League Season 8, 2021 where U Mumba takes on Puneri Paltan.

On the other hand, Nitin Tomar’s return to the Puneri Paltan lineup has proved to be a great one for them.

Aslam Inamdar has had a breakthrough season with 48 raid points and 12 tackle points, he started with a bang but struggled in the last few matches.
Abhinesh Nadarajan has 18 tackles to his name so far and looked particularly good in the previous match.
Puneri Paltans have struggled this season and have already conceded the second most all-outs this season (13) and U Mumba have inflicted the most all outs (12) which is amongst the best in this season and Mumbai have a very strong defense (41.5 % successful tackle) and their recent form has been outstanding compared to Puneri Paltans who have struggled in both departments, hence U Mumba are expected to win this match.
