Defenders
R.Singh (9.0 Cr) has managed to stay consistent with his overall performance as the anchor defender with his potential to create interceptions and tackles in this match.
N.Das (8.5 Cr) started of the season well but has since managed to take a step back in the last 3 games which can allow him to push for a stronger defensive performance to maintain their place in the top tier.
H.Rodas Ramirez (8.5 Cr) was able to score 2 goals against SCEB but has not managed to make a significant attacking difference which should keep him on his toes for this match.

A.Thapa (9.0 Cr) has the potential to perform well under pressure as seen in his match against SCEB which can keep him focused on making his mark in this fixture.

F.Javi-Hernandez (10 Cr) has managed to score 3 goals in the season so far but has not made any significant chance because of his ability to work well to create chances for the other teammates which keeps his contribution consistent.
Forwards
M.Murzaev (9.0 Cr) has managed to play a decent role in setting up chances as the team lacks with their attacking capabilities as a whole which should change to stay in contention for this match.
Jonathas (9.5 Cr) has continued to make the most of his game time this season with consistent contributions that can keep him focused for this match.
A.Cabrera (9.0 Cr) holds brilliant attacking potential but has managed to play as a midfielder which should allow him to push for a stronger form in this match that makes him our prime choice.
