UP Yoddhas Seek Miracle to Qualify for PKL 2025 Playoffs in Clash with U Mumba
23 Oct
Summary
- UP Yoddhas in must-win situation against U Mumba
- Yoddhas can jump to 8th position with big win
- Need favorable results from other matches to qualify

On October 23rd, 2025, the UP Yoddhas will be in a must-win situation when they face off against U Mumba in the final league stage match of the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) 2025 season. While U Mumba have already secured their spot in the next round, the Yoddhas are fighting to keep their playoff hopes alive.
Currently, the Yoddhas occupy the 11th position in the PKL 2025 points table, having earned 12 points from 17 matches. However, a big win over U Mumba could see them jump to the 8th position. But that's not all they need - the Yoddhas will also require favorable results from the Jaipur Pink Panthers vs. Patna Pirates and Bengaluru Bulls vs. Gujarat Giants matches to qualify for the playoffs.
The odds are stacked against the Yoddhas, but they still have a slim chance of making it to the next round. The team will be without their head coach Jasveer Singh, who announced his departure after their previous defeat. This change in leadership might impact the Yoddhas' strategy and team combination.
In contrast, U Mumba are on a three-match winning streak and will be the favorites to win this encounter. If they continue their dominant form, it should be a comfortable victory for the Mumbai-based franchise.
