TEAMS PREVIEW

ATK Mohun Bagan Preview

After a losing start to the 2026/27 MG ISL campaign, Mohun Bagan have found their rhythm and climbed back to the top of the standings with three consecutive victories. While two of those wins came against lower-half sides SC Delhi and Chennaiyin FC, their latest triumph over fourth-placed Punjab FC was a much sterner test. 

The Mariners had to come from behind after conceding early but responded with two goals before half-time to take control. After the break, they managed the game impressively, restricting Punjab to just 17 final-third entries compared to 31 in the first half. 

The victory also extended Mohun Bagan's perfect league record against Punjab FC to six wins in six meetings, while taking their unbeaten home run in the league to six matches.

Apart from the team's impressive run, the form of new signing Lee Erwin has been another major positive for the Mariners, with the forward already contributing two goals and an assist. 

Dejan Drazic's return to scoring form will also please the Bagan faithful, as the Serbian opened his MG ISL account with the winning goal against Punjab. With both forwards finding their feet, Mohun Bagan will have plenty of attacking confidence heading into their next fixture.

Mohun Bagan Probable starting Lineup

Vishal Kaith (GK), Tekcham Abhishek Singh, Alberto Rodríguez, Mehtab Singh, Subhasish Bose, Rahul Bheke, Deepak Tangri, Anirudh Thapa, Samir Zeljković, Dejan Drazic, Lee Erwin .

Odisha FC Preview

Odisha FC were among the teams to enjoy a week off in the MG ISL and will be reasonably pleased with their start to the campaign, despite still searching for their first victory. The Juggernauts have collected two points from three games after opening with a 2-1 defeat to Punjab FC before playing out back-to-back draws. Their latest result, a 1-1 stalemate against NorthEast United, would have been particularly encouraging, as they showed defensive resilience to hold the Highlanders. 

Indeed, defensive solidity has been their biggest strength, with an xGA of just 3.7, the third-best in the league. However, their attacking returns remain a concern. Odisha have managed an xG of only 1.7, the second-lowest in the competition, while scoring just twice, with one of those goals coming through an own goal.

At the heart of their defensive resilience has been Stephen Eze, who has emerged as a rock at the back. The defender currently leads the league's clearance charts with an average of 7.7 per game and will once again be crucial if Odisha are to keep Mohun Bagan's attacking threats at bay.

Odisha FC Probable starting Lineup

Hrithik Tiwari (GK), Vanlalzuidika, Malsawmtluanga T. Singh, Stephen Eze, S. Bhanwala, J. Zohminghlua, Giorgi Aburjania, Puitea (C), K. Lalrinfera, Mahmoud Eid, Everton.

ATK MOHUN BAGAN vs ODISHA FC
Winning Prediction

Mohun Bagan have enjoyed a clear upper hand in this fixture, making it one of the more one-sided rivalries in the MG ISL. The Mariners have won their last three home league meetings against Odisha FC, conceding just once, while their most recent encounter at the venue ended in a thumping 5-1 victory. 

Adding to their advantage, Mohun Bagan arrive on a three-match winning streak at home and are unbeaten in their last six home league outings. Odisha FC, meanwhile, have managed just one win in their last 12 MG ISL matches. Given the contrasting records and Mohun Bagan's impressive home form, the Mariners are strong favourites to take all three points.

Mohun Bagan to win (2-0).
