The Gujarat Giants and Bengaluru Bulls, who finished fourth and fifth in the league, will meet in the second Eliminator match of the night.
Bengaluru Bulls started the season in red-hot form but suffered a poor run in the second half. Their poor form in second half costed them direct semi-final spot and hence, Bengaluru Bulls will be eager to make up for their mistake.
The Gujarat Giants, on the other hand, had a completely different journey to the playoffs. They got off to a rocky start but won seven of their last 11 games to advance to the semi-finals.

PKL Season 8 2022 Eliminator-2 Prediction and Betting Odds

Gujarat's success has been fueled by their seasoned defence. The Giants rely on their defensive consistency to win games; if they don't allow points to be scored, they will be favourites to win.
The Bulls have a propensity to rely too heavily on their leader Pawan Sherawat for raid points, and when he isn't on the mat, they suffer. However, Pawan’s league leading statistics and secondary raider Bharat’s form will put heavy burden on Gujarat’s defence.
The match will be a battle between the offense of Bengaluru and defence of Gujarat. However, looking at this season’s matches between these two, Bengaluru attack is more likely to triumph.
