Odisha FC and Kerala Blasters will cross swords with each other in Match No. 90 of the 2020-21 Indian Super League (ISL). The encounter will take place at the Fatorda Stadium in Margao, Goa.
Odisha FC are on a six-match winless run that also saw their head coach Stuart Baxter getting sacked. However, their only victory this season has come against Kerala Blasters. The bottom-placed unit will be hopeful of completing a double over them.
Odisha FC will miss the services of Gaurav Bora and Manuel Onwu after the duo collected their fourth yellow cards of the season in their last match. The Kalinga Warriors will be bolstered by the return of their captain Steven Taylor, who missed their last game.
Kerala Blasters are currently 10th in the ISL standings. They will come into this clash on the back of two losses against ATK Mohun Bagan and Mumbai City FC.
Facundo Pereyra is still nursing his injuries and remains doubtful for Kerala Blasters' upcoming match.
