There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with Mohun Bagan leading Aizawl by 20 points.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Aizawl have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 4-14-15 (win-draw-loss) from 33 matches.

It's quite the trip for Aizawl when visiting Mohun Bagan as the cities are 1400 kilometers apart.

The season is still full of potential for Mohun Bagan as they can still win the whole I-League.
