PREVIEW
Jamshedpur FC have qualified for the playoffs and are fourth in the table with 38 points from 22 games on the back of 12 wins and two draws. Odisha FC are preparing for its final league fixture, placed seventh with 30 points from 23 encounters thus far.
A win against Jamshedpur FC will see it reach 33 points. If the sixth-placed Mumbai City FC lose both its remaining games, the Islanders will also be on 33 points at the end of the league phase.
In that case, the equation will come down to goal difference, which still gives Odisha FC a lot to play for, with just one vacant playoffs spot now. Odisha FC’s goal difference is 6 right now, better than Mumbai City FC (0).
The Khalid Jamil-coached team will want form by its side going into the playoffs, since it has won and drawn twice each in its last five games.
