Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters FC team news
Bengaluru FC
Naushad Moosa has had a tough start to his career as the interim head coach of the Bengaluru FC side. Since he has taken over, the Blues have not been able to pick up a win.
Bengaluru FC are going through a rough patch, having lost four and drawn one of their last five encounters. Midfielder Dimas Delgado will be out of action for the foreseeable future after heading back to Spain for personal reasons.
The attacking unit powered by Cleiton Silva, Sunil Chhetri, and Kristian Opseth has struggled in recent games. They have managed to score only two goals in their previous five matches and will aim to be more clinical in front of the goal.
Injured - Ashique Kuruniyan
Doubtful - None
Suspension - None
