Match details

Indian Super League
ATK Mohun Bagan vs Chennaiyin FC
Fatorda Stadium, Goa
21st January, 2021
7:30 PM IST

Preview: ATK Mohun Bagan will be desperate to get back to winning ways when they take on Chennaiyin FC in their 12th ISL match of the season on Thursday. The Mariners have dropped four points in their last two games but are still placed at the second place in the table. Scoring has been a problem for them in recent matches and they have scored the least number of goals among the top four teams this season. Chennaiyin FC, on the other hand, have been unbeaten in their last three games and that has helped them in rising to the sixth spot in the table. A win in this match will help them in breaking into the top four but for that, they will have to solve their scoring problems, just like ATKMB.

Top Picks

Roy Krishna: He has gone through a dry run in the last few matches but he will be hoping to regain the form he was enjoying towards the start of the season. Krishna has six goals to his name in the 11 matches so far and he will be looking to score more in this game.

Esmael Goncalves: Chennaiyin FC will have high hopes from him in absence of their ace midfielder Rafael Crivellaro. Goncalves has scored three goals in this ISL season so far and has assisted once on top of that as well.

Manvir Singh: The Indian striker has already scored twice this season for ATKMB and will be eager to increase his tally further in this match. Manvir gets into open spaces on a number of occasions.
