Jamshedpur FC vs ATK Mohun Bagan: Prediction, preview, team news, and more for the ISL 2022-23 match
ATK Mohun Bagan, in a bid to make it through to the knockout phase, will be hoping to beat Jamshedpur FC at the JRD Tata Sports Complex on Thursday, February 9.
The Mariners have suffered from inconsistency over the past few matches. After recording a clinical 2-0 victory over Odisha FC, Juan Ferrando's side, to the surprise of many, slumped to a 2-1 loss at the hands of Bengaluru FC.
Javi Hernandez and Roy Krishna scored for the Blues while the Kolkata giants could only respond with a late goal from Dimitri Petratos. They now need three points against the Red Miners to halt their slump and leapfrog fourth-placed FC Goa in the ISL standings.
Meanwhile, Aidy Boothroyd's team are in a slump of their own. They are currently 10th and are likely to finish the season there. Although they're coming on the back of a victory, Jamshedpur FC can only take so much pride in defeating bottom-placed NorthEast United FC.
