DomainJava.com – Mohammedan vs Odisha prediction in the Indian Super League match, Indian Super League (ISL) club Mohammedan SC will host rising Odisha FC in the first match between the two clubs in history. This match has different stakes for both teams, with both teams desperate to win to achieve great things this season.
With the match scheduled to begin on December 27 at 7.30 pm at the Kishore Bharati Krirangan in Kolkata, this match is sure to entice ISL fans.
Last season’s I-League champions and this year’s ISL debutants, endured a nightmare journey filled with misfortune this season. They are having a tough time in the Indian top flight after picking up five points in 12 matches. The century-old club is trembling in last place and has not won or drawn any of their last five matches.
The team looked promising but now the spark seems to have disappeared with the pressure piling on head coach Andrey Chernyshov. Dropping points at home would further worsen their situation, and would mathematically make qualifying for a top-six position almost impossible.
The Juggernauts themselves have also improved their form in recent weeks and are on a five-match unbeaten streak as they inch closer to a top-six spot. Under coach Lobera, Odisha FC have become much more stable defensively and have also revealed their ruthless attacking streak.
They will have to be very innovative and lively in the final third to penetrate a Mohammedan back line that is determined to stop Odisha. A win could make the Juggernauts a dark horse in the race for the ISL Shield league with a big win over the Black Panthers. Dropping points could see them widen the gap for all the bad reasons Mohun Bagan and Bengaluru FC are leading.
Mohammedan SC will be missing Mohammed Kadiri for the rest of the season due to injury. Odisha FC will be missing their star striker Roy Krishna who has also been sidelined for the entire season due to injury.
The 30-year-old goalkeeper is the only player who has emerged as an important player for Mohammedan SC this season. Appearing as the mainstay goalkeeper from Kolkata, Roy had an unforgettable night against Kerala Blasters FC in matchday 13. The goalkeeper consistently showed resilience and determination, going all out to turn things around for his struggling team.
His spirited performance in the last few match weeks will be an example for his teammates to come back against Odisha. Although the team will be the underdogs in Kolkata on Friday, Roy will be an important player for the Black Panthers if they are to register a positive result against the Juggernauts.
The Brazilian striker has been outstanding for the Juggernauts this season. With seven goals and three assists in 12 games, Mauricio will once again be a dangerous player against Mohammedan. Coach Sergio Lobera will see his striker in his best form. Mauricio will have to show his best ability to penetrate the Mohammedan SC defense, which will try to defend.
With Odisha FC unbeaten in their last six matches, Mauricio will be a key player for his teammates. With an assist in the last game against East Bengal FC, Mauricio will be eager to make a valuable contribution in Kolkata on Friday. (source: Sportsmole)
