Goal-keeper
Arindam Bhattacharya (7.0 Cr) was not at his best in the first match but responded with adversity with a solid performance in his last game making 7 saves and a crucial penalty save highlighting his ability to stand upfront as a brick wall in front of the goal.
Defenders
Mohammed Irshad (7.0 Cr) started off his campaign well with 20 accurate passes and several defensive strides that earned them a crucial clean sheet that can be regained in this match.
Gaurav Bora (6.0 Cr) is consistent with his performance in the recent matches with 38 passes and 3 interceptions with his accurate tackles which should help him continue with his form in this contest.
Lalchungnunga Lalchungnunga (9.0 Cr) is the most consistent performer with brilliant interception skills that have been the main source of contributions with the potential to push with counter-attacking chances in this match.
Midfielders
Romain Phillippoteaux (7.5 Cr) can create goals and assists along with a strong role to help the defense which makes him a strong link from the midfield.
Jon Gaztanaga Arrospide (6.5 Cr) tried to showcase his defensive side of the game with 2 tackles and 2 interceptions allowing him to find accurate passes which can develop in this contest.
Alexandre Lima (9.0 Cr) has provided wonderful performances in the limited game time with great control on his overall skills that earned him a crucial goal in the first match and makes him our prime choice for this encounter.
Souvik Chakrabarti (8.5 Cr) was able to provide important interceptions in the last match with decent chances created which makes him a crucial playmaker that allows him to keep most of the ball possession.
Forwards
Gani Nigam (7.0 Cr) has managed to return from the bench resulting in decent chances which can improve his performance with an improved game time which could be the case for this season.
Cleiton Silva (9.0 Cr) scored an amazing goal to keep his side in the game but couldn’t push further for a win which could be his main boost as our prime choice for this encounter.
VP Suhair (7.5 Cr) has the potential to perform well but lacks consistency which can allow him to fight back under pressure that can cover most of his contributions after adding an important assist in the last match.
Captain And Vice-Captain
A.Lima is our captain because of his fantastic attacking skills that have kept him consistent.
C.Silva is our vice-captain because of his ability to perform well as the striker to push counter-attacking chances.
