The Red Miners will have a shot at cutting down the gap with FC Goa for the second spot if they beat bottom-placed Mohammedan Sporting. Jamshedpur FC are third in the ISL 2024-25 table with 34 points from 20 matches. But they have ended up losing thrice in their last five games.
Their away form has been a cause for concern, having faced six defeats on the road, but MSC have not optimised their home advantage either. In fact, the Kolkata-based side is currently on a four-game-long losing run and have earned just 11 points from their 20 games until now, with both of their wins coming away from home.
Jamshedpur FC have won the only game played between these two teams this season. In the reverse fixture, the Khalid Jamil-coached Red Miners had clinched a convincing 3-1 win.
Jamil said his team is committed to registering a win from this away game. "It's an away game. We need to get a positive result. Everyone is working hard and the team needs to continue doing that moving forward," he said.
Mohammedan SC's Indian assistant coach Mehrajuddin Wadoo praised Jamshedpur FC and the season they had had so far. "We know Jamshedpur FC have performed well this season. It's not going to be an easy game for us, but we are going to try our best to put our best foot forward," he said.
