Head coach Carles Cuadrat will be pleased with his side's current form in their ISL campaign. After starting out with a couple of draws, they won their first match against Chennaiyin FC.
The Blues have gained in strength after starting off on a subdued note in this ISL season. Their attacking unit is looking impressive on the pitch with a good combination of overseas players and Indian youngsters.
The likes of Ashique Kuruniyan, Rahul Bheke and Suresh Wangjam have established themselves as the key members of the Blues' squad. Bengaluru FC had four distinct goal scorers in their commanding 4-2 win over Kerala Blasters FC. They will hope to carry the positive momentum from the win into their encounter against Odisha FC.
