At the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Kochi on Sunday, the hosts Kerala Blasters FC are eager to defeat the second team from the City of Joy, ATK Mohun Bagan, after narrowly defeating one Kolkata behemoth in East Bengal (October 16). The Blasters defeated the Red and Gold Brigade by a score of 3-1 to get their ISL 2022–23 campaign off to a strong start.
The three points were secured thanks to a stirring goal from Adrian Luna and a herculean double from Ivan Kalyuzhnyi, who came on as a substitute. With the recent run of failures, Juan Ferrando has taken a lot of heat. However, the heavyweight match against KBFC will provide the Spanish coach the chance to put to rest all of the rumours about his ability.
Prediction
Kerala Blasters will enter the contest as the undisputed favourites following their powerful second-half display in their most recent encounter. It would take an outstanding effort from ATK Mohun Bagan to defeat the Yellow Army with the support of the home crowd.
