Jamshedpur FC

Jamshedpur FC will rely on their strong attacking options led by Javier Siverio, their top scorer this season. Despite struggling defensively with 22 goals conceded, the team will aim to bounce back after a mixed run of form. The home crowd at the JRD Tata Sports Complex could be pivotal for their success.

Kerala Blasters FC

Kerala Blasters are in desperate need of points after a three-match losing streak on the road. Jesus Jimenez continues to shine with nine goals, but defensive frailties have hurt the team.
