FC Goa vs ATK Mohun Bagan prediction: Who will win today's match?
Two of the most exciting sides in the ISL clash on Sunday as FC Goa lock horns with fellow playoffs contenders, ATK Mohun Bagan. The top-of-the-table encounter will take place at the Fatorda Stadium in Margao.
FC Goa Preview
Head coach Juan Ferrando will be impressed with his side's recent performances. FC Goa have won three of their previous five ISL matches, and are on a four-game unbeaten streak.
After a subdued start to their ISL 2020-21 campaign, the Gaurs have finally found their groove. With a stellar midfield unit comprising both Indian and overseas players, the Gaurs continue to be one of the most compact teams.
Jorge Ortiz Mendoza, Alberto Noguera, Edu Bedia, Brandon Fernandes, and Princeton Rebello have been crucial for the FC Goa side. Igor Angulo has quickly established himself as the most lethal striker in the ISL, garnering nine goals so far.
He was used off the bench against Jamshedpur FC but will likely start against a tough ATK Mohun Bagan defense.
