Goa form and stats

Perfect Indian Super League season at home so far for Goa 2 wins from 2 appearances.

A nice win for Goa last time playing, versus ATK Mohun Bagan. That was also a home game and the match ended 3-0 with Sadaoui, Arnaout and Dohling scoring for the victors. Sadaoui has scored in three matches in a row. Badass! Bedia (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 8.51/10. Bedia served one assist, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 45 successful passes (of 52 total).

Heartbreak before that as Goa lost 1-3 at Kerala Blasters's place.

There might be some fixture complaints from Bengaluru as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous game, 0-4 against Mumbai City.

Midfield player Singh was the top player of the team with a match rating of 6.64/10. Singh hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 31 successful passes (of 37 total).

Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus East Bengal.
