OFF - Pratik Chowdhary

75' Goian to miss the next game.
The Mumbai City defender clips Morgado and even gets an arm around the JFC attacker. The referee shows him a yellow and he has accumulated four of them, meaning he'll miss Mumbai City's next game against NorthEast United.
Yellow - Lucian Goian (Mumbai City)

73' CHANCE!
Sergio Cidoncha plays a free-kick from the right. Sougou's defensive glance falls to Tiri but it isn't an easy shot for the Jamshedpur FC defender. There was another JFC player at the right post but the danger is averted.

71' It's been all Jamshedpur in this second half but the hosts are unable to put away their chances. Mumbai seem to be just holding on. They have seven clean sheets in the ISL after all.

56' It's raining heavily in Jamshedpur and the players are slipping into making some rash tackles. Lucian Goian, this time, clips Mario Arques but nothing comes off the free-kick.

52' Jamshedpur threaten by playing crosses from the flanks. The Mumbai City defence though has been alert and have showed composure in putting them away.

48' Milan Singh commits another foul, this time closer to the box. Cido's set-piece is cleared out but Bipin Singh gives away another free-kick.

46' Second half underway.
Jamshedpur get a free-kick near the half-line because of a foul by Milan Singh. They use it to build up the play.

Goalless at half time but Mumbai City were close to breaking the deadlock on a number of occasions. Paulo Machado was all by himself in the box but miscued his shot. There was that free-kick by Machado as well which was just inches above the crossbar. Subrata Paul saved his side the blushes after rushing out to get that poor back-pass from Pratik Chowdhary away from Modou Sougou.
As for Jamshedpur, Farukh Choudhary and Robin Gurung tried to go for goal from a long range but did not really threaten Amrinder Singh at the goal.
Could that change in the second half? Stay tuned to find out.

Two minutes added.

40' Vignesh D makes a mess of a routine clearance. Jamshedpur forwards were lurking but Amrinder picks it up.

39' Silly passes and dribbles in the midfield result in both sides gifting the ball to their opponents. First it's Farukh for Jamshedpur and then it's Bastos who lose possession.

35' Modou Sougou shows pace down the right and wins the battle with Pratik but the Jamshepur defender clips him from behind.
Yellow - Pratik Chowdhary (Jamshedpur FC)

31' CAUTIONED!
Sauvik goes for the man and brings Bikash Jairu with a reckless tackle. Referee gets the card out.
Yellow - Sauvik Chakrabarti (Mumbai City FC)

30' CHANCE!
But Machado makes a mess of it.
A quality delivery from Bastos, plays it to the left post for Machado from the edge of the box.
He's all by himself and tries to hit it on the bounce but he lets it fly.

26' Brilliant stuff but poor execution.
Bastos splits the defence open with a wonderful through-ball to Bipin Singh.
Bipin moves in and looks to pass to Sougou, decides against it and goes for goal.
Dhanachandra blocks it with his chest.

23' SHOT!
Farukh goes from distance and the attempt is on target.

Mumbai on the attack.

14' SHOT!
Dhanachandra finds space 35 yards out and decides to go for it.
He pulls the trigger but the left-footed attempt flows over the ball.

12' Hope rises as Jamshedpur FC have a free-kick from the right. They have, after all, scored 50 per cent of their goals off dead-ball situations. But the ball is played deep into the box by Sergio Cidoncha and goes out for a corner.
The flag-kick is played short and pumped in but Mumbai get it away.

8' Just after that, Robin Gurung shows his frustration on Rafael Bastos and earns himself a booking.
Yellow - Robin Gurung (Jamshedpur FC)

7' Heavy stuff.
Farukh Choudhary plays it through to Robin Gurung but the pass is too heavy and Gurung can't get to it before it rolls out of bounds.

3' The crowd roars whenever Jamshedpur have the ball and are happy with that tackle by Mario Arques on Rafael Bastos! Free-kick for Mumbai City in a not-so-dangerous area.

1' There's a minute's silence for Emiliano Sala, who died in a plane crash before his move to Cardiff City in the Premier League.
And after that, the game kicks off.

The players head out onto the pitch and it's time for the National Anthem.
L Ajit Metei is the referee for tonight's game.

Sumeet Passi is out and Pablo Morgado comes in for Jamshedpur FC in their Starting line-up.
Mumbai City have fielded Marko Klisura in the defence, his second start for the club. Moudou Sougou missed the previous game to a hamstring injury but he is back. Vignesh D gets his first ISL start, while Bipin Singh is to fill the shoes of Arnold Issoko.

Pressure point.
Mumbai City coach Jorge Costa thinks his team will have less pressure compared to Jamshedpur because of their standing on the table. Mumbai are second with 27 points in 14 matches, while Jamshedpur are fifth with 20 points.
"Both teams will be under pressure tomorrow. But this is our job. We must control it because every time (we play) we are under pressure. Where we are in the table, we should have less pressure compared to Jamshedpur," Costa said before the Jamshedpur v Mumbai City ISL Live game.

Hello and Welcome to Sportskeeda's Live Coverage of the Jamshedpur v Mumbai City Live ISL game.
This is Aravind Suchindran and I'll bring you the line-ups next.

Jamshedpur FC have an injury crisis going with Tim Cahill out for the season and minor issues for midfielder Michael Soosairaj and defender Raju Gaikwad.
Coach Cesar Ferrando feels the injury problems make his job tougher against Mumbai City.
"The problem in this team is not only Cahill. There’s Michael Soosairaj and Raju Gaikwad. This is the problem. I am a coach and I have to think with the players available at this moment in mind. I have to think about the best line-up," Ferrando said ahead of the Jamshedpur v Mumbai City ISL Live game.

Mumbai City's Arnold Issoko is tied with Jamshedpur FC's Carlos Calvo for the highest number of assists provided. Both have five assists and even Ferran Corominas and Federico Gallego are tied with Issoko.

Did you know?
Paulo Machado has played against his current Mumbai City teammate Modou Sougou during his time with CF Estrela Amadora. Sougou was with Vitoria Setubal FC and the two played against each other in the Liga NOS (Portuguese top division) in the 2005/06 season.

Modou Sougou has been flagged offside 40 times this season, the highest for any player. FC Goa's Ferran Corominas has been caught offside on 15 times and he comes second on that list.

Mumbai City are also defensively solid. They have conceded the second least number of goals - 14 - after Bengaluru FC (12). They also have maintained seven clean sheets, the highest by any team in the ISL.

Mumbai City, however, have scored nine goals from counter-attacking situations, the highest in the league. Will they find the back of the net again in the Jamshedpur FC vs Mumbai City ISL Live game?

Mumbai City have scored just twice from set pieces, the fewest goals scored by a team off dead ball situations.

Jamshedpur have scored most of their goals via set-pieces. Out of the 22 goals they have, 11 have come from set-pieces, the highest in the league. Is that trend going to change in the Jamshedpur FC vs Mumbai City ISL Live game?
