ISL 2020-21, Bengaluru FC vs Mumbai City FC Live Score: Fall, Bipin Singh scores to put Mumbai 2-0 up

ISL 2020-21, Bengaluru FC vs Mumbai City FC Live Score: Mumbai City FC have taken a steady lead in the first half courtesy goals from Mourtada Fall and Bipin Singh. Can Sunil Chhetri’s Bengaluru FC find a way through?

HALF TIME: BENGALURU FC 0-2 MUMBAI CITY FC

It has been a very dominating display from MCFC and they rightfully head into the break with a 2-goal advantage. BFC started off on an attacking front but it was MCFC who took the lead inside the first 10 minutes.
Shoddy defending from BFC along with a good show of strength from Mourtada Fall gave the Islanders the lead. 6 minutes later Bipin Singh doubled the lead after a quality cross from Mandar Rao Dessai.
The Islanders had a few half chances after that but were unable to add to their lead. BFC were poor in midfield but started to get into the grove as the game went on. They have a mountain to climb in the second half if they are to get anything out of it. Can the Blues fight back or will Mumbai City FC bag all three points?

Veteran striker Adam le Fondre has brought his experience of playing in Europe and Australia to the fore, scoring five goals so far.

Mumbai City FC will also be boosted by the return from injury of influential midfielder Hugo Boumous.

Meanwhile, former champions Bengaluru FC have had an inconsistent season thus far. After going unbeaten in the first six games, Bengaluru FC’s form tailed off, having suffered consecutive losses against ATK Mohun Bagan and Jamshedpur FC in their last two matches.

Captain Sunil Chhetri has scored three goals so far but has not found the net in the past two matches while the usually reliable defence has also looked shaky in the defeats.

A win against an in-form Mumbai City FC will likely restore Bengaluru FC’s confidence as they look to make it to the top four to mount a second title challenge.

Bengaluru FC vs Mumbai City FC Prediction

Mumbai City, under Sergio Lobera has looked like a formidable force and currently holds the edge over Sunil Chhetri-led Bengaluru FC.

With 5 wins from last 6 games, the scales are tipped in favour of the Highlanders and are once again expected to wrap up another victory when both the teams lock horns.
