Odisha FC vs Bashundhara Kings preview, team news, telecast details and more for the AFC Cup 2023-24 clash

Shifting their focus from the ISL, Odisha FC will square off against Bashundhara Kings in the second group-stage game of the AFC Cup 2023-24 at the Kings Arena in Dhaka on Monday.

The Juggernauts suffered a 0-4 hammering against Mohun Bagan SG in their opening match of the tournament. But they rebounded strongly in the ISL with a 2-0 victory against Chennaiyin FC. In the second round of fixtures, Sergio Lobera locked horns against his former club Mumbai City FC, with both sides settling for an entertaining 2-2 draw.

But the AFC Cup challenge against the Bangladeshi heavyweights will be a perfect opportunity to get their continental campaign on track. Meanwhile, Bashundhara Kings are coming off a defeat in their opening group-stage match against Maziya. The return to their home ground will provide a massive boost for the club as they too are eyeing a return to winning ways.

“Hopefully, we will enjoy the match, and hopefully, we will win it. We lost the first game in the AFC Cup. The second game is important to get three points to keep our chances alive to progress in this competition,” Lobera said ahead of the clash.
