ATK Mohun Bagan and Odisha last met on December 3 where the former won 1-0. It was a last-minute win as Roy Krishna scored the winner in the fifth minute of the stoppage time. ATK Mohun Bagan had more shots on target and overall, had more possession as well. ATKMB committed more fouls than Odisha FC and grinded out a big victory at the Fatorda.
There will be additional pressure on Odisha FC as it looks to snap a winless run of five games under the guidance of Gerald Peyton, who took the charge on an interim basis. "In the last six games, we're going to show a positive attitude, a determination to win as many games as possible and take the club forward," said Peyton. "If you look at nearly all the games we've played, we've been a fraction away (from getting results). It's been one goal in every game and finding that combination to go and win games, I'm sure we are going to find that," Peyton added.
ATKMB coach Antonio Lopez Habas is aware Odisha will be even hungrier this time, as they prepare for life without Baxter. "We have to play against Odisha the same way we play against Mumbai," said Habas. "They are in a special situation because the coach is out. Maybe when the team changes or the coach changes, the motivation increases," he added.
