Mumbai City form and stats

The overall Indian Super League statistics at home this season for Mumbai City are 5-2-3 (wins-draws-losses).

The fans are hoping that Mumbai will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the game against Hyderabad. Fall was "man of the match" with a rating of 8.04 out of 10. The defender Fall scored one goal and won 8 of 12 duels.

A Indian Super League defeat was the result before that one, 1-3 away at Kerala Blasters.

Mumbai City are huge favourites in this match and it would be a big surprise if they fail to leave Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium with a victory. The home side has been in this situation before, with huge expectations of a win. In their match history 15 earlier games are comparable to this one, and Mumbai City has won five times, drawn three and lost seven. Sports bettors who like handicap betting will like to know that Mumbai City has won by at least two goals one time when in this position.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Mumbai as they are travelling to their away game against Al Quwa Al Jawiya in the AFC Champions League. That match is three days after this one.

The Mumbai City fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 16 goals in 10 league matches. Mumbai have conceded 14 in these home matches.
