This time around, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/tag\/dabang-delhi\/\" data-type=\"post_tag\" data-id=\"47\">Dabang Delhi<\/a><\/strong> will be stepping onto the mat with revenge on their minds, aiming to <strong>stay unbeaten<\/strong> and assert their dominance in PKL 12. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/team\/patna-pirates\/\" data-type=\"sp_team\" data-id=\"1701\"><strong>Patna Pirates<\/strong><\/a> are searching desperately for just their <strong>second win of the season<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Head-to-Head: Patna Pirates vs Dabang Delhi<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The rivalry between Patna Pirates and Dabang Delhi has become one of the most gripping in PKL history. They\u2019ve faced each other <strong>23 times<\/strong>, with <strong>Patna Pirates<\/strong> holding a slight edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Matches Played<\/strong>: 23<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Patna Pirates Wins<\/strong>: 11<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dabang Delhi Wins<\/strong>: 9<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ties<\/strong>: 3<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, Patna have also had the better of Delhi in <strong>playoff matches over the past two seasons<\/strong>, including last year&#8217;s semi-final win \u2014 something Delhi would be keen to avenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Current Form and Standings of Both Teams<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dabang Delhi<\/strong> are looking unstoppable this season. With a perfect record of <strong>6 wins from 6 matches<\/strong>, they\u2019re one and only unbeaten team in PKL 12. Their defense has been rock solid, and they\u2019ve shown depth in raiding even with injuries affecting key players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patna Pirates, once a dominant force with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/pro-kabaddi-winners-list-pkl-champions\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1685\">three PKL title<\/a>s<\/strong>, are enduring a rough patch this season. With only <strong>1 win from 6 games<\/strong>, they sit near the <a href=\"https:\/\/kabaddiarena.com\/en\/table\/pro-kabaddi-points-table-2025-pkl-12\/\" data-type=\"sp_table\" data-id=\"42\">bottom of the table<\/a>. A win here won\u2019t just bring points \u2014 it could be the morale booster they desperately need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Players to Watch Out For<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Patna Pirates \u2013 Ankit Jaglan<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The captain and left-corner defender <strong>Ankit Jaglan<\/strong> has been one of Patna\u2019s key players in the past two seasons, but his form has dipped in PKL 12. Despite being retained with high hopes, he\u2019s leaked points and struggled to maintain consistency. However, his past performances against Delhi have been solid, and he\u2019ll need to step up if Patna wants to compete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Dabang Delhi \u2013 Neeraj Narwal<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With Ashu Malik recovering from a niggle, <strong>Neeraj Narwal<\/strong> has emerged as Delhi\u2019s go-to raider in recent matches. His ability to break through defenses, especially under pressure, makes him a game-changer. Against a leaky Patna defense, he could play a pivotal role in maintaining Delhi\u2019s unbeaten streak.<\/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 7s<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Patna Pirates Starting 7:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Milan Dahiya<\/strong> (Raider)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ayan Lohchab<\/strong> (Raider)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sudhakar M<\/strong> (Raider)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Deepak Singh<\/strong> (Defender)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sanket Sawant<\/strong> (Defender)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Navdeep<\/strong> (Defender)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ankit Jaglan (C)<\/strong> (Left Corner)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Dabang Delhi Starting 7:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Fazel Atrachali<\/strong> (Left Corner)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ajinkya Pawar<\/strong> (Raider)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Saurabh Nandal<\/strong> (Defender)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ashu Malik (C)<\/strong> (Raider)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Surjeet Singh<\/strong> (Defender)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Neeraj Narwal<\/strong> (Raider)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sandeep<\/strong> (Right Corner)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Squads Overview<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Patna Pirates Full Squad:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Raiders<\/strong>: Maninder Singh, Ayan Lohchab, Sudhakar M, Mandeep, Deepak, Sahil Patil, Milan, Ankit<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Defenders<\/strong>: Sanket Sawant, Amir Ghorbhani, Deepak Singh, Hamid Nader, Thiyagarajan Yuvraj, Navdeep, Saurabh, Priyanshu, Sombir, Balasaheb Jadhav<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>All-Rounders<\/strong>: Ankit Jaglan<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Dabang Delhi Full Squad:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Raiders<\/strong>: Mohit, Anil Gurjar, Vijay, Ajinkya Pawar, Akshit, Neeraj Narwal, Ashu Malik<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Defenders<\/strong>: Fazel Atrachali, Sandeep, Anurag, Raman Singh, Mohit, Saurabh Nandal, Gaurav Chhillar, Surjeet Singh, Amirhossein Bastami<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>All-Rounders<\/strong>: Amit, Ashish Kumar Sangwan, Naveen, Arkam Shaikh<\/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\">Patna Pirates vs Dabang Delhi Match Prediction: Who Will Win?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking purely at form and depth, <strong>Dabang Delhi<\/strong> come into this match as clear favorites.
