Rishabh Pant Is Yet To Fire With The Bat

In the four matches LSG have played, they have won two and lost two so far. Captain Rishabh Pant's form will be a matter of concern as the Indian wicketkeeper hasn't managed to fire his bat so far.

Mohun Bagan Had A Brilliant League Campaign

Mohun Bagan had an errorless campaign during the league phase, having only lost two games. They lost the first leg of the ISL semifinal 2-1 in Jamshedpur. JFC lodged a last-minute victory courtesy of a goal from Javi Hernandez. The Gren And Maroons lost to Mumbai City FC in the final last season and are very adamant about doing the double this time.
