TEAMS PREVIEW

Gujarat Giants Preview

The Gujarat Giants suffered a 35-29 loss to the UP Yoddhas in their last match. Trailing by two points at halftime (19-17), the Giants were on the verge of forcing an all-out on the Yoddhas in the second half. However, back-to-back multi-point raids by Bharat Hooda derailed their momentum.

Rakesh Sangroya led the Giants with 8 points (7 raid points, 1 tackle point), while Himanshu Singh's 5 raid points, 2 raid bonuses, and 2 tackle points were crucial. Neeraj Kumar (3 tackle points), Vahid Reza (2 tackle points), and Jitender Yadav (2 tackle points) also contributed to the defensive effort. However, the raiding unit could have performed better.

Against the Thaliavas, the corner defenders will play a pivotal role. Himanshu Singh is likely to see increased playing time, and tall raider Parteek Dahiya could thrive against a strong defensive unit.

So far this season, the Gujarat Giants have averaged 30.66 points per game while conceding 33.3 points. Their raiding unit averages 16.33 points per game, and their defense averages 12.66 tackle points per game. Parteek Dahiya is the team's leading raider with 11 points, while Sombir leads the defense with 12 tackle points.

Gujarat Giants Probable Starting 7 - Rakesh Sangroya, Parteek Dahiya, Guman Singh, Jitender Yadav, Neeraj Kumar, Vahid Rezaei Mehr, Sombir

Tamil Thalaivas Preview

The Tamil Thalaivas are coming off a 42-40 loss to the Patna Pirates and a 30-30 draw against U Mumba. Their last game against U Mumba was a tightly contested affair that tested both Sachin Tanwar and Narender. Tanwar finished with 11 points (8 raid points, 3 tackle points), while Sahil Gulia struggled with just one tackle point. M Abhishek led the defense with three tackle points, and Amir Hossain Basatmi, replacing Sagar Rathee, hasn't made a significant impact. Nitesh Kumar was effective with two tackle points.

Against the Gujarat Giants, the corner-cover duo of Sahil Gulia and M Abhishek will be crucial in stopping the Giants' right raiders, Parteek and Rakesh. Sachin Tanwar is likely to raid more frequently, targeting the Giants' weak right corner.

Both the Thalaivas' raiding and defensive units rank among the top seven this season, with only one game exceeding 33 points conceded. The Thalaivas average 37.25 points per game and concede 32.75 points.  Their raiding unit averages 18.75 points per game, while their defense averages 13.5 tackle points per game. Narender Hoshiyar (37 raid points) and Sachin Tanwar (30 raid points) are the top raiders, and Nitesh Kumar (13 tackle points) and Sahil Gulia (12 tackle points) are the top defenders.

Tamil Thalaivas Probable Starting 7 - Sachin Tanwar, Narender Hoshiyar, Aashish, Nitesh Kumar, Amirhossein Bastami, Sahil Gulia, M Abhishek
