In the Indian Super League, Odisha will lock horns with ATK Mohun Bagan on Saturday.
Odisha is the new frontrunner in the Indian championship. Their last match against Goa ended in a stalemate — 1:1. Now, Odisha is perched on top of the table with 31 points from 15 games in the 2023/2024 season. The team displayed stability by winning 9 matches, suffering 2 losses, and 4 stalemates. Goa is ranked 4th in the league table, amassing 28 points from 14 games with 8 wins and 2 losses. Out of the last 5 games, Odisha had emerged victorious 4 times and managed a draw once.
Mohun Bagan continues to display confident performance, celebrating a victory in their last match against NorthEast United with a score of 4:2. Presently, Mohun Bagan is seated at the second position in the Indian Super League championship table, holding 29 points from 14 games played. They demonstrated a high level of play by winning 9 games, suffering 3 losses, and clinching 2 draws. Their goal difference of 28:18 speaks volumes of their attacking potential. Meanwhile, NorthEast United is sitting at the 7th position with 19 points from 16 games, managing 4 wins and 5 losses.
Given the clash of the championship leaders with a long unbeaten streak, I am wagering for a total over.
