This thrilling encounter will take place on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/pro-kabaddi-2025-todays-match\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1774\">13th September 2025 at 8:00 PM<\/a><\/strong>, marking the second day of the Jaipur leg of the tournament. Both teams have had a mixed start to the season, with the stakes high for each of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s dive into the preview of this exciting match, the head-to-head stats, the starting lineup for both teams, and our prediction for the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Current Standings and Form of Both Teams<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/team\/jaipur-pink-panthers\/\" data-type=\"sp_team\" data-id=\"1700\">Jaipur Pink Panthers<\/a><\/strong> have played 5 matches in this season and secured 2 wins, putting them at <strong>7th position<\/strong> on the points table. On the other hand, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/team\/up-yoddhas\/\" data-type=\"sp_team\" data-id=\"1706\">UP Yoddhas<\/a><\/strong> have played 4 matches, winning 2, and are currently ranked <strong>8th<\/strong>. Both teams will be looking to improve their position on the <a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/table\/pro-kabaddi-points-table-2025-pkl-12\/\" data-type=\"sp_table\" data-id=\"42\">points table<\/a> with a crucial win in this upcoming match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>captain of UP Yoddhas<\/strong> is <strong>Sumit Sangwan<\/strong>, while <strong>Nitin Rawal<\/strong> leads the <strong>Jaipur Pink Panthers<\/strong>. Both captains are key figures for their respective teams, and their leadership will play a pivotal role in this high-stakes match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Match Preview: A Clash of Young Talent<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This match promises to be an exciting contest. In their last encounter, which was an <strong>Eliminator clash in PKL 11<\/strong>, <strong>UP Yoddhas<\/strong> comfortably defeated <strong>Jaipur Pink Panthers<\/strong>. Now, the Panthers will be looking for revenge and a chance to make a comeback. On the other hand, <strong>UP Yoddhas<\/strong> will aim to get back to winning ways and strengthen their campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jaipur has made some key changes this season. After letting go of their star raider <strong>Arjun Deshwal<\/strong>, they brought in the young and talented <strong>Nitin Dhankar<\/strong>, who has impressed so far. This change is expected to make Jaipur\u2019s raiding department stronger. The match will likely be a battle of the young raiders, with <strong>Nitin Kumar<\/strong> being the focal point for Jaipur\u2019s offensive unit. On the flip side, <strong>UP Yoddhas<\/strong> has a dynamic and young raiding lineup, including the likes of <strong>Guman Singh<\/strong>, <strong>Surender Gill<\/strong>, and <strong>Pranay Rane<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to defense, <strong>Sumit<\/strong> has been the backbone for <strong>UP Yoddhas<\/strong>. Alongside <strong>Hitesh<\/strong> and <strong>Ashu Singh<\/strong>, he has helped keep UP&#8217;s defense solid and competitive. This trio\u2019s ability to disrupt the opposition&#8217;s raiders will be crucial in deciding the outcome of this match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/pro-kabaddi-pkl-2025-all-teams-players-list-and-their-captain\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1673\">Pro Kabaddi (PKL) 2025: All Teams, Players List and their Captain<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>UP Yoddhas vs Jaipur Pink Panthers &#8211; Head-to-Head Record<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>head-to-head record<\/strong> between the two teams is quite balanced. Out of the 14 matches played between these two teams so far, both have won <strong>7 matches<\/strong> each, with no draws. This indicates that both teams have managed to match each other in terms of performance, making their encounters highly competitive and entertaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In their most recent encounter during <strong>Season 11<\/strong>, it was the <strong>UP Yoddhas<\/strong> who emerged victorious, securing a strong win over <strong>Jaipur Pink Panthers<\/strong> in the Eliminator stage. However, Jaipur will be determined to turn the tables this time, especially with the home advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Possible Starting 7 &#8211; Both Teams&#8217; Lineup<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Both teams are expected to field their strongest starting lineup in this crucial match. Here\u2019s a look at the possible starting 7 for both <strong>UP Yoddhas<\/strong> and <strong>Jaipur Pink Panthers<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>UP Yoddhas Starting 7:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Right Corner:<\/strong> Hitesh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Right In:<\/strong> Bhavani Rajput<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Right Cover:<\/strong> Ashu Singh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Centre:<\/strong> Guman Singh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Left Cover:<\/strong> Mahender Singh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Left In:<\/strong> Gagan Gowda<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Left Corner:<\/strong> Sumit (C)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Jaipur Pink Panthers Starting 7:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Right Corner:<\/strong> Ronak Singh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Right In:<\/strong> Ali Samadi Choubtarash<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Right Cover:<\/strong> Aashish Kumar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Centre:<\/strong> Nitin Kumar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Left Cover:<\/strong> Reza Mirbagheri<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Left In:<\/strong> Sahil Satpal<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Left Corner:<\/strong> Nitin Rawal (C)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Key Players to Watch Out For<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In this encounter, <strong>Nitin Kumar<\/strong> will be the key raider for <strong>Jaipur Pink Panthers<\/strong>. His form has been exceptional, and if he can continue his attacking exploits, Jaipur will have a good chance of winning. However, Jaipur\u2019s success will heavily depend on their defense, and <strong>Ronak Singh<\/strong>, <strong>Aashish Kumar<\/strong>, and <strong>Reza Mirbagheri<\/strong> will need to deliver strong performances to counter UP&#8217;s raiding attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, <strong>UP Yoddhas<\/strong>&#8216; defense, led by captain <strong>Sumit<\/strong>, will be a major factor in this match. <strong>Guman Singh<\/strong>, <strong>Surender Gill<\/strong>, and <strong>Pranay Rane<\/strong> will be key players for the Yoddhas, as they try to dominate the raiding department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Match Prediction<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on current form and squad depth, <strong>UP Yoddhas<\/strong> are slightly favored in this encounter. Their raiding department, which is full of young talent, looks more balanced compared to Jaipur\u2019s reliance on <strong>Nitin Kumar<\/strong> for raiding success. While Jaipur\u2019s defense could pose a challenge, it will be difficult for one player to carry the entire team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prediction:<\/strong> <strong>UP Yoddhas<\/strong> to win by a margin of 3-5 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When and Where to Watch UP Yoddhas vs Jaipur Pink Panthers PKL 2025 Match<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The live-action of the <strong>UP Yoddhas vs Jaipur Pink Panthers<\/strong> match will be telecast on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/watch-pro-kabaddi-live-on-mobile-and-tv-channels-app\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1680\">Star Sports<\/a><\/strong> TV channels.
