TEAMS PREVIEW

Jamshedpur FC Preview

After another tough defeat on the road, the Men of Steel quickly shook off their disappointment upon returning to ‘The Furnace.’ There, they dealt with the Blasters with clinical precision, securing a 1-0 win. With six victories from seven home games and an impressive three-match unbeaten run, they've transformed their home ground into an intimidating fortress for visitors. Not bad, especially when facing Bengaluru for the first time this season!

Bengaluru’s late-game flair often sees them strike between the 76th and 90th minute. For the Men of Steel, it’s crucial to stay sharp during this window and inject fresh legs when needed. If they can break the deadlock first and time their substitutions perfectly, extending their unbeaten home run is well within reach.

 While the Men of Steel kept the Blasters' attack in check last time, containing a potent side like Bengaluru will demand a more resilient defense. Unfortunately, that's been their Achilles' heel. With the league's worst xGA of 1.94 per game, they can't afford to offer Bengaluru a second chance. 

Stats That Matter

1. Jamshedpur FC are averaging 1.2 goals per game in their last five matches
2. Jamshedpur FC has scored a minimum of one goal in each of their last four games
3. At home, Jamshedpur FC are averaging 1.8 goals per game and conceded 1.6 goals. 

Jamshedpur FC Probable XI -  A Gomes (GK); Sarangi, P Chowdhary, S Eze, M Uvais, S Das, Irshad Khan, Hernandez, Tachikawa, J Siverio, M Sanan

Bengaluru FC Preview

The Blues are on fire! Bengaluru FC notched their eighth win of the season with a thrilling 4-2 victory over Chennaiyin FC. The win has ensured the Blues’ extended their unbeaten run of three games now. Interestingly, this marks their third 4-2 result in recent matches—two in their favor and one against. Regardless, the victory over Chennaiyin extends the Blues' unbeaten streak to three games, keeping their momentum alive and kicking. But, then they do have a problem. 

The Blues have been prolific in attack, netting 20 goals in their last seven games. But defensive frailties remain a concern, with 17 conceded during the same stretch. Goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, under scrutiny again, made another costly error against Chennaiyin, highlighting a key issue for Gerrard Zaragoza to address.
