HAR vs PAT Dream11 prediction: Today's match predicted playing 7s for Haryana Steelers vs Patna Pirates Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 96

The Haryana Steelers (HAR) and the Patna Pirates (PAT) face off in the 96th match of PKL 11 on Friday, December 6, at the Balewadi Sports Complex in Pune.

The Steelers suffered a surprising defeat to the Bengal Warriorz in their last outing. Still, they just about managed to scrape one point from the fixture, ensuring that the defeat margin was within 7 points, with the final scoreline at 32-39. A rare off-day for their defense was the reason for their defeat, and they'll look to remedy that when they take on a strong Pirates side.

Patna's last outing was a close 38-35 win over the same Bengal side that bested the Steelers. With the Pirates second on the points table behind the league leaders Haryana with a game in hand, they'll look to use this opportunity to bid to finish on top of the table.

HAR vs PAT Dream11 Team Prediction Top Picks, Pro Kabaddi 2024, Match 96

Raider - Devank

Devank has been one of, if not the best raiders this season, scoring a whopping 194 raid points in only 15 matches, and is set to become the first raider to breach the 200-point mark. Along with his raiding partner Ayan, Devank has spearheaded Patna's charge, and has racked up the Dream11 points in every match.

While Ayan, Shivam Patare and Vinay are all solid options, none of them are as big a must-have as Devank is, with the latter on par with Mohammadreza Shadloui as a Dream11 option.

---

Defender - Rahul Sethpal

While there are many quality options such as Shubham Shinde, Deepak Singh, Sanjay, and Jaideep Dahiya, the safe and reliable Rahul Sethpal is the best Dream11 defender on paper, and the only must-have. He's the fifth-best defender this season, and also scored four tackle points in the reverse fixture.

He could also be a useful Dream11 captaincy choice.

All-Rounder - Mohammadreza Shadloui

Mohammadreza Shadloui has turned Haryana Steelers from a title contender to the title favorites, with his dominating presence both as a defender and a raider, and the points ceiling that he has is unmatched by any other player in the league.

While Patna left corner Ankit, also classified as an all-rounder, is a solid Dream11 option, he comes nowhere close to Shadloui, who's an essential and easily the best captaincy option.

HAR vs PAT Expert Tips for Pro Kabaddi 2024

A slightly rattled Haryana Steelers taking on an in-form Pirates makes for a potentially thrilling contest that could go either way. This fixture has a collection of arguably the best Dream11 options in the league, and selecting a team from among these players is easier said than done, although few must-haves like Shadloui, Devank, and Rahul Sethpal pick themselves.

The more differential options like Shivam Patare, Arkam Shaikh, Shubham Shinde, and Jaideep Dahiya could score big, and it's the decision on whether or not to go for players like them that's the main dilemma presented to Dream11 players with regards to this fixture.
