GUJ vs PAT Dream11 Prediction: Welcome to the 42nd match of the Pro Kabbadi League Season 8, 2021 where Gujarat Giants takes on Patna Pirates. Gujarat Giants started their PKL 8 season with a win over Jaipur Pink Panthers but have struggled since then as they are now winless in their last five matches. They have a quality and experienced side but still haven’t played as per their standards as they sit at the ninth spot in the standings with 14 points in six matches. The Giants have lost their last two games, with the most recent one coming against the bottom-placed Puneri Paltan 33-26. On the other hand, Patna Pirates have been one of the finest and the most balanced sides so far this season. They have ticked all the boxes with multiple players stepping up on the occasions to help their team cross the line. The Pirates have grabbed four wins from six outings and are standing at the third spot with 24 points under their belt. They were held to a 30-30 tie by Tamil Thalaivas in their previous outing and will now aim to grab their fifth win of the season. This promises to be a great match.
