Telugu Titans v Patna Pirates Dream11 Kabaddi Prediction today: Fantasy Kabaddi tips

In a much-anticipated clash as part of Pro Kabaddi 2019, the Telugu Titans will square off against three-time champions Patna Pirates in the 98th fixture of the season at the Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex in Pune.

The Patna Pirates will be coming into this contest on the back of three consecutive wins and will be keen on moving up the points table with a win from this contest. On the other hand, the Telugu Titans are placed 11th on the points table with just 4 wins from 11 matches and will be eyeing a much-needed win that will arrest their three-match losing streak.

Pirates' skipper Pardeep Narwal has been in some scintillating form and has registered Super 10s in each of his last five encounters, including a massive 26-point effort against the Tamil Thalaivas that has influenced all of the Pirates' wins thus far.

For the Titans, Siddharth Desai has 128 points from 15 matches this season and seems to be slowly finding his feet on the raiding front, which makes him an 'X-factor' for his side from this game.

The two teams have already squared off once earlier this season during the Titans' home leg in a game which saw the Pirates reign supreme by a 34-22 margin and it remains to see if the Pirates will claim yet another win against the Abozar Mighani-led side.
