The Bengal Warriors and Puneri Paltan will go head-to-head in the 78th match of Vivo Pro Kabaddi 2022 on Monday, November 14, at the Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex in Pune.
While the Warriors are coming off a commanding 46-27 win over the Gujarat Giants despite resting their first-choice corner defenders, it was agony for Paltan who suffered a thrilling defeat on Derby Day against U Mumba.
Super 10s for both Shrikant Jadhav and Maninder Singh combined with a more than satisfactory performance from Surender Nada and Sakthivel R in the corners saw the Warriors romp to a win. Meanwhile, the Paltan corners completely blanked against U Mumba, with a rare bad outing for Fazel Atrachali headlining their defensive woes. However, Mohit Goyat's Super 10 and tackle points kept them in the hunt.

BEN vs PUN Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Pro Kabaddi 2022, Match 78
Raider - Mohit Goyat
While he might not be getting as many raid points as Maninder Singh, Mohit Goyat is certainly matching the Bengal Warriors captain when it comes to Dream11 points. His higher ratio of touchpoints to bonuses and his tendency to chip in with tackle points makes him a top option to pick.
Defender - Fazel Atrachali
Fazel will be determined to make up for his blank in the previous match and register some tackle points in this one.
All-Rounder - Deepak Niwas Hooda
Deepak Niwas Hooda has really had an unpredictable season, but this could be one of the games he really gets in the zone. He's really the only player among all-rounders who has a very high points ceiling and is worth taking a punt on.
