TEAMS PREVIEW

Aizawl FC Preview

Aizawl FC have had a mixed but eventful start to their season—dropping points in the opener against Namdhari (1-1), dominating Rajasthan in the next (3-1), and then showing great character to fight back twice against Real Kashmir (2-2). 

In a thrilling, end-to-end contest against Kashmir, Aizawl kept pushing until the first minute of stoppage time, when right-back Lalrempuia emerged as the unlikely hero with the equaliser. 

Zomuansanga also found the net, scoring in back-to-back games. Meanwhile, head coach R. Lalruatfela has shown faith in consistency, sticking with the same starting XI from the opening fixture. Though in the coming game, one could see Eric Chhangte start in the midfield. 

Aizawl FC Probable XI - ​Vanlalhriatpuia (GK); Laldawngzuala , T. Lalmuanawma, Rohmingthanga, H. Lalrempuia, Lalawmpuia Sailo, Chhangte, Vanlalhriatzuala K., Laltlanzova, Zomuansanga, Vincent Lalduhawma. 

Diamond Harbour FC Preview

The Harbour boys have made an impressive start to their debut campaign. After a narrow 1-0 loss to Sreenidi Deccan, Diamond Harbour bounced back with back-to-back 2-1 wins, both home and away.

Their latest victory followed a familiar pattern—less possession but greater efficiency. Despite seeing less of the ball and fewer attempts, they were clinical in front of goal, converting 7 of their 12 shots on target. Luka Majcen led the charge with a brace, underlining their sharp, counter-attacking approach.

Now just a point off the top, Diamond Harbour will back themselves to continue their momentum against an unpredictable Aizawl side. 

Diamond Harbour Probable XI - Dheeraj Singh (GK); Ajith Kumar, Melroy Assisi, Mikel Kortazar, Shubham Sarangi, Sunday Afolabi, Paul Ramfangzauva, Bryce Miranda, Hugo Díaz, Antonio Moyano, Luka Majcen.

Winning Prediction

Aizawl FC’s struggles at home continue to show, with mixed results and a tendency to concede in every game due to their attacking approach. That style could play right into the hands of Diamond Harbour, who thrive on capitalising on such openings.

The Harbour boys, meanwhile, have looked disciplined at the back and efficient going forward. Taking all factors into account, they appear well placed to edge this contest.
