Hello and welcome to another live coverage of Indian football. We continue bringing you all the live updates of the Indian Super League 2024-25. Tonight, we will bring you all the live updates, news, and live scores of the crucial encounter between Odisha FC and Mohammedan FC at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar.
The Juggernauts have been defeated and drawn twice in their last five games, hampering their chances to make it to the top six. They are at the seventh spot presently with 29 points from 22 games on the back of seven victories and eight draws, behind the sixth-positioned Mumbai City FC (32) by three points, but the Islanders have played a game fewer (21).
The Kalinga Warriors are also battling competition from East Bengal FC and Kerala Blasters FC, who have 27 and 24 points from 22 and 21 encounters, respectively. Odisha FC also hopes that Mumbai City FC and NorthEast United FC drop points going forward so that the Sergio Lobera managed side can remain in contention for the next stages.
On the other hand, Mohammedan SC has faced losses in all of their last five games and is at the bottom with 11 points from 21 games. They will try to make Odisha FC the third side that they possibly beat this season after Chennaiyin FC and Bengaluru FC, but their recent form makes it a slightly tough task. They can, however, draw confidence from the fact that both of their wins this season have come on the road.
The Kolkata-based side is playing for pride and will be keen to spoil the party for Odisha with a win in match week 24. With three games remaining in their season, the club will have the opportunity to give a good account of themselves against a team fighting for a playoff spot.
The Juggernauts will have qualification berths at high stakes ahead of this game. So, sit back and enjoy the match as Sportz Point provides you with all the real-time updates, team news, live scores, and match commentary tonight.
