Match Preview: Thalaivas in a mini-slump, need to find a way against Telugu corners

A bottom of the table clash and both teams need a win to keep playoff qualification hopes alive. Thalaivas looked like a strong after their first 6 games, where they all their defeats were with a 1 point margin and a few performances here or there would have given them very different confidence. Post that though they have been winless in their last 6 games with 5 losses and a solitary tie against the Paltans. Can they turn around their season for the next 10 games? Thalaivas will be smarting from a defeat against the bulls and how they have recovered from that defeat will have a big say on their focus for today's game. Titans also are coming in on a back of a defeat to the Paltans. It is a game they would feel they should have won. How both these teams put behind their most recent disappointments and show up with vigor to deliver a match-winning performance will be a big driver of the final result. Both teams have a strong super tackle track record this season. Telugu in its most recent game set the record for the most number of tackle points in the first half of a match. Which teams defense will deliver a master class for the remainder of the season. Or will we see a low scoring tie?
