Winning Prediction

East Bengal have suffered consecutive defeats in the Indian Super League.

The last away success for Kerala Blasters was towards the end of 2022. Even after an impressive win over Odisha, there is a reason for some scepticism from Kerala Blasters. East Bengal should be able to take advantage of this poor away form.
