Bengaluru FC Hoping For Strong Result Against Jamshedpur FC

A struggling Bengaluru FC will have their task cut out as they look to snap a six-match winless streak in the Indian Super League (ISL) when they host Jamshedpur FC here on Sunday.

The Blues are currently undergoing a difficult patch of form. They have been winless in their last six games, drawing once and losing five times -- including three defeats on the bounce entering Sunday's game.

Jamshedpur FC, on the other hand, have broken their six-game winless streak against Bengaluru FC with a 2-1 victory in the reverse fixture and will now aim to complete a league double over the Blues for the second time (previously in 2020-21).

However, they have struggled to find their feet at the Kanteerava stadium, being unable to emerge victorious in their previous four clashes there.

In the standings, Jamshedpur FC are placed third with 34 points from 18 matches on the back of 11 victories and a solitary draw. They are involved in a close battle with FC Goa for the second place.

The Red Miners have a chance to leapfrog FC Goa (34) with a win here and they will aim for nothing less to sustain pressure and keep challenging for the top-two, which qualifies a team directly for the semi-final.

Bengaluru FC are sixth in the table, having 28 points from 19 matches due to eight victories and four draws.

Bengaluru FC head coach Gerard Zaragoza said that his team wants to emerge victorious over crucial junctures.

“Our plan is to win over important moments. What’s better than playing at home in Kanteerava in front of our own supporters!” he said.

Jamshedpur FC head coach Khalid Jamil reiterated on the importance of consistently getting positive results.

“Everybody is working hard. We are working well. We need to continue the work and get a positive result in this away match,” he said.
