FC Goa will face a resurgent SC East Bengal on Friday in the Indian Super League (ISL) in their quest to retain their place in the top-four.

Under Juan Ferrando, FC Goa have won 5 matches and drawn 5. They have collected 20 points from 13 matches, sitting just below Mumbai City and ATK Mohun Bagan on the table.

The first half of the 2020-21 ISL was terrible for SC East Bengal as they languished at the bottom of the table. However, the Red and Golds found the momentum afterwards, accumulating 12 points till now.

Playoffs might be a distant dream for Robbie Fowler and his men, but they will look to finish at a respectable position in their debut season in the ISL.
