Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters FC Match Prediction & Analysis

Kerala Blasters are hopeful of avoiding yet another disappointing away defeat against Bengaluru when they travel to the Sree Kanteerava Stadium for a league match this weekend. This Indian Super League match features two opponents who are separated by a sizeable gap on the league table. However, Bengaluru are in much better shape leading up to the match and they cannot be taken lightly.

TEAMS PREVIEW

Bengaluru FC Preview

Reasons to be cheerful

• Bengaluru are unbeaten in the last four home matches

• The team has also picked up three wins in the last four home league matches

Reasons to be fearful

• Bengaluru have failed to get goals out of their starting forwards

• Sunil Chhetri has scored only one goal in his last 10 games

Bengaluru will be hoping for another positive run at home when the team goes up against Kerala Blasters. Since the heavy loss against Mumbai City at the start of December, it has been a strong run in front of their supporters for Bengaluru, who are just a couple of points away from sneaking into the top six once again. Salam Johnson Singh remains the only injury concern for Gerard Zaragoza.

Star man – Sivasakthi Narayanan

Sivasakthi Narayanan brought the crowd alive with his late cameo against Hyderabad. Even though he has not been a regular in the starting line-up, the 22-year-old is likely to be pushed for the starting berth for this match. The 22-year-old has scored twice in his last six matches.

Kerala Blasters FC Preview

Reasons to be cheerful 

• Kerala Blasters are back to winning ways

• The club scored four goals for the first time this season

Reasons to be fearful

• The club continue to have a lengthy injury list

• Kerala Blasters have not done well away from home

Kerala Blasters remain in a great position with regards to pushing back into title contention, as the likes of Odisha and Mumbai City have failed to take advantage of their misfortunes. Kerala Blasters, though, are unlikely to be jumping with joy following the win over Goa, who have been in a lot of trouble on their own. Kerala Blasters have struggled defensively for several weeks and the long injury list certainly does not help the club.

Star man – Dimitrios Diamantakos

Dimitrios Diamantakos is up to 10 goals for the campaign after his fine performance against Goa. The 30-year-old has 10 goals and three assists from his 13 appearances making him one of the crucial members of the Indian Super League campaign this season. Diamantakos’ last goal against Bengaluru was in December 2022.

Winning Prediction

Kerala Blasters might have managed a big win over Goa in the last match but they continue to struggle in the absence of several key players like Adrian Luna. Bengaluru might have started the home matches on a poor note but they have been looking very solid of late. Bengaluru have picked up a string of home wins that will give them additional confidence coming into the match.
