TEAMS PREVIEW

Mohammedan SC Preview

Mohammedan SC's recent defeat to NEUFC in extra time will undoubtedly leave them feeling disappointed. The team's attacking play was a significant concern, as they struggled to create scoring opportunities and lacked cohesion in their combination play. Their discomfort on the ball is another issue that the head coach will need to address promptly to avoid future struggles.

The potential absence of Alexis Gomez due to injury adds to Mohammedan SC's challenges. His availability for the upcoming match remains uncertain, and his absence would be a significant blow to the team's attacking options. The head coach will need to find suitable replacements and devise strategies to compensate for Gomez's potential absence. 

Mohammedan SC Starting Lineup (4-3-3): P Chettri(GK); Z Ralte, J Adjei, G Bora, V Chhakchhuak (Defenders); A Singh, M Kasimov, Franca (Mid Fielders); M Chothe, L Manzoki, L Fanai (Forwards)

FC Goa Preview

FC Goa's unexpected defeat to the Red Miners was a disappointing result, particularly considering their status as pre-match favorites. The team's second-half performance, as acknowledged by head coach Manolo Marquez, was a major cause for concern. However, FC Goa remains a strong contender for the championship, boasting a talented squad and the determination to improve their performance.

The absence of several key players due to injury will impact FC Goa's lineup and depth. Sandesh Jhingan, Mohammed Yasir, Alan Saji, Hrithik Tiwari, Lara Sharma, and Iker Guarrotxena are all sidelined with injuries, limiting their options in certain areas. Despite these absences, the remaining players are fit and available for selection.

The match against the Kolkata club presents an opportunity for FC Goa to bounce back from their previous defeat. They will be motivated to deliver a solid performance and demonstrate their true potential. The team's coaching staff will need to devise strategies to overcome the challenges posed by the opposition and maximize their available resources.

FC Goa Starting  Lineup (4-2-3-1): L Kattimani (GK); A Sangwan, N Tamang, Odei, U Singh (Defenders); C McHugh, R Borges; BD Fernandes, D Drazic, BS Thangjam (MId Fielders); A Sadiku (Forward)
