The Indian Super League season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Odisha FC and Bengaluru promises to be an interesting one.

Insights:
  • Odisha FC has the fewest clean sheets (0) in Indian Super League
  • Bengaluru have not yet lost a game.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Indian Super League.

These teams have little in common geographically as Bengaluru have to travel 1800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Odisha FC form and stats

Two Indian Super League home games so far for Odisha FC, who are yet to win here at GMC Stadium. Only 0 points so far. Odisha has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager S. Baxter and the players. The Odisha manager S. Baxter might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Stress levels are on the rise for Odisha's attacking players as they have now played 270 minutes without scoring in a league game. Mauricio Diego was their last goal scorer.

The Odisha crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Goa here at GMC Stadium in a Indian Super League match. Prior to that, an away loss at Mumbai City.

Arshdeep Singh had a busy but productive day in the Goa match. Despite making nine saves the loss could not be prevented.

At GMC Stadium, Odisha FC has the goal stats of 0-2 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.

Bengaluru form and stats

Four points from two away games for Bengaluru, meaning one draw and one victory in the Indian Super League so far.

The supporters enjoyed Bengaluru's previous game versus Kerala Blasters (placed 9th), a Indian Super League 4-2 win played at home. Preceding that match was the 2-2 draw at home vs NorthEast United.

As you can tell from the result, the match against Kerala Blasters was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Bengaluru manager C. Cuadrat as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against ATK Mohun Bagan.

3 goals so far away for Bengaluru, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last six matches): Odisha FC two wins, zero draws and Bengaluru four victories. As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three games had two or less.
