Kerala Blasters form and stats

1-2-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Indian Super League numbers at home for Kerala Blasters, who have the most conceded goals (20) in Indian Super League, so far this season.

The home team returns to GMC Stadium after being equal after 90 minutes with East Bengal (placed 9th) on their last time out; the Indian Super League game ended 1-1. In the game before, an away victory match versus Jamshedpur with a 3-2 scoreline.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Blasters as they have a new game in only three days, a Indian Super League match thankfully also at home. Goa are visiting.

Blasters are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 5 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Blasters defense is not exactly impregnable. 8 goals conceded from 5 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Bengaluru form and stats

2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. That’s the product of Bengaluru playing as the away team in the Indian Super League this season.

Bengaluru are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at NorthEast United (placed 8th). The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against East Bengal.

A quick return to home after this game, as Bengaluru are hosting Odisha FC in the Indian Super League only four days away.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Bengaluru have scored 6 goals in 5 league games away. Bengaluru have conceded 5 goals in these away matches.
