Teams Preview
Inter Kashi Preview
Inter Kashi bounced back from their 2-0 defeat to Kerala Blasters on MD1 by earning a valuable point against Odisha FC. Although chances were few in an otherwise cagey contest, Kashi had opportunities to take the lead, with Wayne Vaz wasting a couple of promising chances.
They were made to pay for their profligacy when Pratik Chaudhari’s error resulted in an own goal shortly after the break. Albino Gomes then kept Kashi in the contest with a crucial save in the 76th minute, and his efforts were rewarded when his teammates struck an 89th-minute equaliser.
From Kashi’s perspective, the draw was deserved, given their dominance in possession (59%), final-third entries (77-57) and completed passes (438-343). Beyond the result, another positive was the improved attendance compared to their previous outing, offering encouragement as they continue to play their home matches in Pune.
Inter Kashi Probable starting Lineup
Albino Gomes (GK); Laldinliana Renthlei, Pratik Prabhakar Chaudhari, Nishchal Chandan, Sajad Hussain Parray, Wayne Bosco Vaz, Jitendra Singh, Sumeet Passi, Hitesh Sharma, Rosenberg Gilbert Gabriel, Manvir Singh.
East Bengal Preview
Following their disappointing home defeat to Al-Shorta in the AFC Champions League 2 (ACL 2), East Bengal bounced back in style with a commanding 4-0 win over newcomers Churchill Brothers in the MG ISL at the PJN Stadium in Goa. The result was hardly surprising, given East Bengal’s dominance across the key metrics, particularly their 21 shot attempts, which reflected their attacking intent.
Bipin Singh stole the show with a brace after coming off the bench, while Dani Ramirez marked his East Bengal debut with a goal. David Lalhlansanga also continued his promising form, following up his display against Al-Shorta with an assist.
Meanwhile, Antonio Habas once again named just three overseas players in his starting XI, as he had done in the ACL 2 fixture.
East Bengal Probable starting Lineup
Prabhsukhan Singh Gill (GK); Jay Gupta, Anwar Ali, Diego Živulić, Chungkham Lalchungnunga, Edmund Lalrindika, Thoiba Singh, Mohamad Basim Rashid, Rohit Danu, Dani Ramírez, David Lalhlansanga.
INTER KASHI vs EAST BENGAL
Winning PredictionEast Bengal may have won their previous meeting, but Inter Kashi can take heart from the fact that they scored an early goal and kept the Red and Gold Brigade at bay throughout the first half. Playing with an all-Indian squad, Kashi will look to draw inspiration from that performance.
However, East Bengal will be eager to claim all three points, especially as they look to extend their unbeaten run in the MG ISL to 12 matches. Given their squad depth, quality and current form, the Red and Gold Brigade head into this clash as overwhelming favourites.
