The two struggling sides of ISL, Jamshedpur FC and Kerala Blasters are set to face off against each other in Jamshedpur tonight.

This match sees a lot of connections between the two sides, as Jamshedpur manager Steve Coppell had managed the Blasters last season. Yet another connection between the two sides is that between the two managers. While Coppell had managed Manchester City, David James has played for the Sky Blues.

To add to that, the likes of Kervens Belfort, Izu Azuka and Mehtab Hossain, who have all played for Kerala Blasters are now going to turn out in Jamshedpur colours.

Kerala Blasters have been on good form ever since their new boss David James took over, as they went on to create history by winning two successive away games on the trot for the first time.

Jamshedpur are on the other end of the spectrum, as they are now on a three-match winless run, which has seen them slip down to the eighth spot on the Premier League table.
