PUN vs BEN: Puneri Paltan will be up against Bengal Warriors in the 43rd match of the Pro Kabaddi League PKL 8 on Sunday, 9th January 2022 at the Sheraton Grand Bengaluru Whitefield Hotel and Convention Centre, Bengaluru.
Puneri Paltan are not having the kind of PKL 8 season they would have expected. They are placed at the 11th position in the points table having won just two of their seven games. They come into this game on the back of a 31-26 defeat against Jaipur Pink Panthers. The return of Nitin Tomar from injury might be a huge boost for them and could now start to get on winning ways.
On the other hand, defending champions Bengal Warriors haven’t been at their best and are having a pretty mediocre season. After grabbing two consecutive victories, they have managed to win only one of their last five games. In the recent encounter, they suffered a 41-37 defeat against Haryana Steelers which saw them go down to the eighth spot in the points table.
