Odisha FC vs ATK Mohun Bagan FC team news
Odisha FC
After the dismissal of former head coach Stuart Baxter, Odisha FC have appointed his assistant Gerald "Gerry" Payton as the interim head coach. Payton has taken over along with Indian assistant coach Steven Dias as his deputy.
Odisha FC have consistently struggled since the start of the season and have only won one match so far in the competition. They are virtually out of the playoffs race but will aim to end the final stretch of the season on a positive note.
Under the new head coach, it will be interesting to see if any major changes to the lineup are made. Diego Mauricio, Manuel Onwu and Cole Alexander will continue to be the key components of the attacking unit. They will miss the services of defender Steven Taylor after he picked up four yellow cards.
Injured - None
Doubtful - None
Suspension - Steven Taylor
ATK Mohun Bagan FC
Spanish head coach Antonio Habas Lopez will be delighted with his team's gritty performance against Kerala Blasters FC. After being down 2-0, the Mariners sparked a comeback through the final thirty minutes and won 3-2 in the end.
New signing Marcelinho was on the scoresheet in his ATKMB debut and Roy Krishna added two goals to complete the stunning resurgence. With that win, ATK Mohun Bagan clinched their eight win of the competition and keep the pressure on league leaders Mumbai City FC at the top of the table.
We saw Habas switch to a three-man defence after a long time with the reliable trio of Pritam Kotal, Sandesh Jhingan and Tiri at the back. Marcelinho partnered up with Roy Krishna in the ATK Mohun Bagan attack and the two played well together. It will be interesting to see how Habas decides to line his side up against a struggling Odisha FC team.
He will have to use his bench well with Edu Garcia and Carl McHugh set to miss out due to injury and yellow card suspension respectively.
Injured - Edu Garcia, Michael Soosairaj, Joby Justin
Doubtful - None
Suspension - Carl McHugh
