45′- Three extra minutes have been added on

With that opening goal, it is also time for the cooling break.

13′- Peter Hartley plays a superb long ball to find William Lalnunfela away from his defender.

Prediction: Jamshedpur FC vs ATK Mohun Bagan

The analytics shows that ATK Mohun Bagan has clear supremacy over Jamshedpur FC. Jamshedpur FC (JFC) has got a good head-coach Owen Coyle replacement of Aitor Monroy and also last season Golden Boot winner and former Chennaiyin FC striker Nerijus Valskis roping to Jamshedpur FC. So, it is a major advantage for JFC team. Also, the entry of new coach is disadvantage for JFC-team, because his strategies could go haywire if the players fail to be in sync. They have experienced foreigners like Peter Hartley, Stephen Eza, Alex

Lima and Nicholas Fitzgerald to act as the spine of the side. On the other hand, ATK is the most successful ISL team having won the ISL title three-times. Moreover ATK’s merger with Mohun Bagan should be a boost to the club. The squad is almost similar to last year’s winning team and it will be led by last-editions ISL-winning coach as well. ATKMB boast of a strong team likes of Tiri, Sandesh Jhinghan and Subhasish Bose joining the side, the team has been made even stronger. ATK may once again be over reliant on their attacking pair of Roy Krishna and David Williams and any injury to the duo may put the side in trouble. Apart from that, ATK don’t have too many issues on the playing field. The former champions will once again be the favourites for the upcoming season and will be a strong contender to pick up their fourth ISL title. We expect ATKMB to win this match.
