Mumbai City FC take on Kerala Blasters FC in the Indian Super League (ISL) on Wednesday at the Goa Medical College in Bambolim. Both the teams come into this game on the back of defeats.

Mumbai City FC sit on top of the ISL standings but have a slim lead over the second-placed ATK Mohun Bagan. They were outclassed tactically in their previous game by NorthEast United FC. The Islanders will need all three points against Kerala Blasters FC to keep their AFC Champions League qualification hopes alive.

Kerala Blasters lost 2-3 to ATK Mohun Bagan in their previous ISL fixture, despite going 2-0 ahead in the game. The Blasters are on an improving curve but lack conviction and quality to challenge for the top-four. Three points from this clash will push them to the 6th place in the standings.
