Kerala Blasters and Mumbai City meet in the Indian Super League tonight, after clearly contrasting results in their most recent matches. Kerala Blasters were thrashed 4-1 away at NorthEast United on 18 Oct, while Mumbai City drew 1-1 at home with Minerva Punjab on 19 Oct. The differing results mean the two teams come into this game in different moods. Kerala Blasters' defensive problems remain the same old issue, conceding four goals in a single match, while their attack managed only one goal in the previous game, a 0-2 loss to Inter Kashi on 11 Oct. Mumbai City, though not winning, drew with goals and their defence did not collapse badly. The game before that they also lost 2-1 to Churchill Brothers on 11 Oct. So neither team is settled, but Mumbai City look slightly more composed. This game is likely to be an open exchange in midfield. Both sides have defensive weaknesses visible from their recent matches, and both score late goals about as often as each other. If Mumbai City control the early tempo and do not concede first, the game tends to end close or lean towards the away team. But if Kerala Blasters use their home advantage to press from the start, the game could swing back to the home side as well.
