Bengaluru FC will be eyeing their second straight victory when they take on ATK Mohun Bagan FC at the Kanteerava Stadium on Saturday, December 3.
The Blues ended their four-game losing streak with a convincing 2-0 victory against FC Goa away from home, courtesy of a brace from Javi Hernandez. It is only their second win of the season after Simon Grayson's side beat NorthEast United FC 1-0 in their opener.
The Kolkata giants, on the other hand, registered a 1-0 victory over a resilient Hyderabad FC side on Saturday. They lost Joni Kauko, their midfield warrior, to a long-term knee injury. It will be interesting to see how Juan Ferrando's side adapt to life without the Finnish midfielder in the longer run.
The hosts sit ninth in the table. ATK Mohun Bagan FC, on the other hand, are placed fourth and are already eight points away from table toppers Mumbai City FC, having played two games lesser.
