After four games on the road, Real Kashmir finally return home for the first time this season, hosting Namdhari FC on Wednesday at 4 PM.
The Snow Leopards will be keen to make a strong start in front of their fans, especially after their recent defeat, while Namdhari, buoyed by their latest result, will look to build on that momentum.
Current Standings: With three points, Namdhari sit eighth in the league standings, while down below them are Real Kashmir with just two points.
Head-to-head Record: Namdhari have had the better of the Snow Leopards in the rivalry, having won three of the four league matches while losing once.
Real Kashmir’s search for a win continues after slipping to a narrow 1-0 defeat against Rajasthan FC away from home, with the decisive goal coming in the first half.
Any hopes of a comeback were dented when Habib Fofana saw red in the 58th minute, forcing the Snow Leopards to scale back their attacking intent.
They managed little going forward thereafter, and matters worsened late on as Calvin Baretto was also sent off for denying a clear goal-scoring opportunity.
With two key players suspended, Real Kashmir’s squad depth will be tested as they prepare for their first home game of the season.
Real Kashmir Probable XI - Furqan Ahmad (GK); Oinam Sanatomba Singh, Hyder Yousuf Wani, Mashoor Shereef, Basit Ahmed Bhat, Kamal Issah, Mohammad Inam, Mamoud Oshie, Asrar Rehbar, Shedrack Charles, Ahteeb Ahmad Dar.
Namdhari bounced back from their match day 3 defeat in Rajasthan with a hard-earned point in Hyderabad against Sreenidi Deccan—marking their third straight away game.
They struck first through a moment of brilliance from Manvir Singh, whose audacious long-range effort from the halfway line caught the goalkeeper off guard.
Manvir, along with Mohammad Sajid Dhot, was one of the changes introduced by coach Harpreet Singh, and the move paid off in a solid overall performance.
However, with three 1-1 draws in four games, Namdhari will now be eager to turn competitive displays into a much-needed win.
Namdhari FC Probable XI - Niraj Kumar (GK); Karan Kumar Sharma, Mohammad Sajid Dhot, Kamalpreet Singh Grewal, Gurshan Singh Sehnaj Singh, Francis Addo Nuer, Bhupinder Singh, Jaskaranpreet Singh, Seilenthang Lotjem, Manvir Singh.
Real Kashmir will take confidence from returning home, a venue where they were the best side last season and remain unbeaten in their last 11 league matches. However, Namdhari did get the better of them in this very fixture last year, even if their overall away form has been underwhelming with just one win in their last 10.
It’s a tough one to call, but with Kashmir struggling in attack and Namdhari looking solid at the back, a draw seems the most likely outcome.
