Table-toppers Mumbai City FC (MCFC) will lock horns with FC Goa (FCG) in the first match of Matchweek 9 of the Indian Super League (ISL) 22/23 on Thursday, December 1, at the Mumbai Football Arena.

The Islanders have been in terrific form this season and are the only team to remain unbeaten. They have five wins and three draws in eight matches, with a 3-1 win away at NorthEast United FC being their latest. They'll look to extend that unbeaten run in front of their home fans.

Meanwhile, FC Goa suffered a surprise 2-0 defeat to Bengaluru FC in front of their home fans. Placed fifth on the points table, it has been a topsy-turvy run of form for Goa, who have four wins and three defeats in seven matches. They'll look to return to their best and stun Mumbai away from home.

Mumbai City FC vs FC Goa Dream11 Fantasy Suggestions

Mumbai City FC definitely have the advantage over FC Goa and look favorites on paper. Both my suggestions have six MCFC players and five from FC Goa as a result. Given the attacking quality both sides possess, we can expect a goal-filled game.

Bipin Singh, Brandon Fernandes, Edu Bedia, Aibanbha Dohling, Greg Stewart, and Noah Sadaoui are all players I feel are essentials on this side. In the form in which Greg Stewart and Bipin Singh are in this season, they're also among the best captaincy picks.

Iker Guarrotxena, Jorge Diaz and Lallianzuala Chhangte could be solid attacking differentials, with Rostyn Griffiths and Vignesh Dakshinamurthy impressing in defense.
