PKL 2019, Match 40 preview: Yodhha, Steelers look to continue winning run

Haryana Steelers have won two matches in a row and UP also in entering the match after winning the previous one

In the 40th match of VIVO Pro Kabaddi League, pumped up UP Yoddha will take on confident Haryana Steelers at the EKA Arena by TransStadia in Ahmedabad on Wednesday. The two teams will be entering the match with a win in their previous one. UP had a close match against Bengaluru Bulls and won the match by just 2 points. Haryana Steelers are in brilliant form and will be looking to notch up a hat-trick of wins.

Yoddhas ended a three-match defeat draught in the Pro Kabaddi League 2019 with a win against Bengaluru Bulls on Monday. Their win has placed them in a good position on the points table and another win against the Steelers can take them higher. Raiders Shrikant Jadhav and Monu Goyat combined to score 14 raid points against Bulls, but it was the defence and their 15 tackle points that were the key to their victory. 

Steelers were handed three back-to-back defeats. Situatio was looking grim for them but then they notched up two successive wins and found the track to progress. A hat-trick here will go a long way in making their case to move up on the points table.
