AFC Cup betting and spectator preview: Bengaluru and Eagles meet at Rasmee Dhandu Stadium to measure strength and learn who makes it to the next stage.
Bengaluru form and stats
Bengaluru have not come this way in the AFC Cup without some hard work on the way, more precisely defeating Nepal Army. Bengaluru was eliminated in the play-off round last season in the AFC Cup. Maziya was too strong.Bengaluru's results here at Rasmee Dhandu Stadium in the Indian Super League have been very modest with 1 victory, 4 draws and 5 defeats. With seven home Indian Super League games in a row without a win, the Bengaluru fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Kerala Blasters game long ago, can be stopped today.
A nice win for Bengaluru last time playing, versus Nepal Army. That was also a home game and the match ended 5-0 with S. Chhetri, R. Bheke (2) and Cleiton Silva (2) scoring for the victors. As mentioned above, Bengaluru "killed" Nepal Army in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
Heartbreak before that as Bengaluru lost 2-3 at Jamshedpur's place.Bengaluru aren't scoring a lot here at Rasmee Dhandu Stadium in the league, with only 9 goals from 10 games. Bengaluru have conceded 14 in these home matches.
Eagles form and stats
The traveling awayteam has defeated Thimphu City in order to reach play-off round of AFC Cup.Playing away, Eagles have won 2 games, drawn 4 and suffered 1 defeat in the Male League this season.
Two away games in a row for Eagles, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-4 versus Maziya in the Male League. Eagles lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.
Ahead of that match was the Male League away draw versus Club Valencia that ended 0-0.Eagles have scored 7 goals on their travels this season, from 7 away games in the league. Eagles have conceded 7 goals in these away matches.
