Match Preview: Bengaluru FC Vs ATK Mohun Bagan FC

Bengaluru FC take on ATK Mohun Bagan at the Fatorda Stadium on Tuesday. The Blues were held to a goalless draw by Chennaiyin FC in their last match while ATK Mohun Bagan registered a 4-1 victory over Odisha FC in their previous outing.

Bengaluru have been a shadow of their former selves this season. After three wins and three draws in their first six games, the Blues have won just once in their last 10 matches. Their disappointing run of results can be attributed to inconsistent performances at both ends of the pitch.

However, their lack of a creative spark, which has limited them all season, meant that they could only manage four shots at goal against Chennaiyin as their offensive struggles continued. They will be playing against an ATK Mohun Bagan team that has been defensively solid this campaign but have let in a few goals in their last three matches. Bengaluru will be hoping for more defensive lapses by ATK Mohun Bagan and will look to make the most of them.

Meanwhile, ATK Mohun Bagan seem to have found their scoring boots of late. They have netted seven goals in their last two outings and seem to have put their goal-scoring problems behind them. The loan acquisition of Marcelo Pereira from Odisha has added an attacking edge to the team and the form of Roy Krishna and Manvir Singh has also been a boost offensively.

With Hero ISL 2020-21 now in its business end, a victory over Bengaluru will be imperative for the Mariners to keep the pressure on league leaders Mumbai City FC. ATK Mohun Bagan also stand a chance to do the double over Bengaluru FC, having beaten them 1-0 in the reverse fixture.

Bengaluru FC Interim Coach said

“Positivity is the only way to approach these games. We’re focusing on ATK Mohun Bagan and we know how we need to play. We will give our best for sure, and the environment is positive. We’ve kept two clean sheets [in the last two matches], and that’s a good thing but the way ATK Mohun Bagan have been playing, we know it’s going to be a tough game. The boys know how important this game is,” Bengaluru’s interim head coach Naushad Moosa said ahead of the match.

“We have to compete in every match. The Bengaluru match is another match in which we have to compete. No two matches are the same. We have a good balance in the team. Now, we are improving in the attack. The target is to be in the top four mathematically. After that we are thinking about the first position in the league stage,” Habas said ahead of the game.

ATKMB 2-0 BFC [45:00 min]

ATKMB is now really on fire. This team is totally different. Inclusion of Leny and Marci totally changes the complexion of this team .

I never ever had seen any team to start a squad with 4 lethal striker. This team did that today.

  1. Roy
  2. Marci
  3. Devid
  4. Manvir

No defense in ISL could handle that attack .

For BFC. They are trying but today totally out classed by ATKMB.

I would not be astonished if the hammering continues.

ATKMB 2-0 BFC

BFC keeps the score line because of Gurprit. Some beautiful saves.

Otherwise story was the carbon copy of first half.

Two player played very much irresponsibly today.

  1. Sunil
  2. Khabra.

I don’t think these two are playing football, they are interested in playing wrestling for today’s match. Being the captain of indian football team this display doesn’t suite sunil.

More or less this was the thing for the day.

Bengaluru FC 0-2 ATK Mohun Bagan

Marcelinho Magic and Roy Krishna Penalty Gives ATKMB 2-0 Win!

Marcelinho finds the back of the net with a brilliant free kick. Roy Krishna converts the penalty conceded by Pratik Chaudhari. Carl McHugh’s fizzing strike was kept out by Gurpreet. Gurpreet also denied Roy Krishna.

ATK Mohun Bagan had more shots, much more on target and thoroughly deserved the win.
