Mumbai City form and stats

4 victories, 3 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Mumbai City, who have the most scored goals (25) in Indian Super League, have to build on here at GMC Stadium in the Indian Super League.

Mumbai City drew their last game, also a home match. Goa (placed 3rd) was the opponent, 3-3 the score. A strong away win before that one, visiting Kerala Blasters and winning 2-1.

A disappointing finish for Mumbai City in their match versus Goa as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 3-3 full time score. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Mumbai handle that role? We have found six games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are three wins, two draws and one defeat.

Bengaluru form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Indian Super League travels is 3 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats.

Bengaluru aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 225 league minutes without a goal. D. Majumder (own goal) was the last player to find the net.

Bengaluru might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. ATK Mohun Bagan proved too strong as Bengaluru slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium (Fatorda Stadium). A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Chennaiyin.

Bengaluru goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh Sandhu had a great day against ATK Mohun Bagan, but despite making seven saves the loss could not be avoided.

Bengaluru are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, zero draws and two defeats. From a total of two matches.

The visiting Bengaluru have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 11 goals from 8 games. As opposed to that, Bengaluru have seen the ball go into their own net 9 times on the road.

Head 2 Head
