The action on doubleheader Sunday at the Indian Super League (ISL) kicks off with Mumbai City FC taking on Odisha FC at the GMC Stadium in Bambolim, Goa.
Mumbai City FC are one of the most in-form teams in the ISL presently, having won two matches in a row. They overcame the shock defeat in their opening match against NorthEast United FC to bounce back against FC Goa and SC East Bengal.
The midfield welcomed Ahmed Jahouh back into the fold after his one-match suspension that saw him miss the FC Goa clash. Jahouh has worked well in tandem with Rowlin Borges to forge attacks for the frontline. English poacher Adam le Fondre has been consistent, scoring three goals in three matches. He will be crucial for their success in front of the goal.
Odisha FC, on the other hand, are struggling to find their form in the ISL. They have not been able to get a win in three matches so far. With two 1-0 losses against ATK Mohun Bagan and Hyderabad FC, the only point that Odisha FC have earned was against Jamshedpur FC. They were undone by a last-minute winner scored by Roy Krishna in their loss against ATK Mohun Bagan.
Head coach Stuart Baxter will hope his side can recover from the close loss and get their ISL 2020-21 campaign rolling. They have good options in the attack with the likes of Marcelinho, Manuel Onwu and Diego Mauricio leading the line. Diego Mauricio has scored two goals in the competition so far and will be backed to deliver against the Islanders as well.
