Odisha Form

Odisha can't wait for the season to end after suffering a fourth defeat in their last five matches.

It was a second straight 3-1 loss as they went down to Goa last week. They had lost the previous game by the same scoreline to NorthEast United.

Odisha have also lost to Jamshedpur 1-0 and ATK Mohun Bagan 4-1 in their recent run, as well as drawn 2-2 with Kerala Blasters.

With just one win all season, Odisha are eight points adrift at the bottom of the table and have lost 11 of 18 matches this campaign.

They are winless since early January when they collected their only victory with a 4-2 success over Kerala Blasters.

Odisha Team News

Odisha have a third manager of the season after interim coach Gerry Peyton, who replaced Stuart Baxter, left his post.

Steven Dias takes charge of the final two games of the campaign.

Young forward Paul Ramfangzauva is the only injury doubt.

Mumbai City Form

Mumbai City have lost their way with back-to-back defeats and only one win in their last six games.

Mumbai have lost 4-2 to Bengaluru and 2-0 to Jamshedpur in their last two matches.

The equation is simple now for the Islanders if they are to secure top spot and the coveted AFC Champions League spot that comes with it.

Sergio Lobera's side need to win both remaining games and hope ATK Mohun Bagan lose their final game. Top spot would then be decided on goal difference.

Mumbai City Team News

Midfielder Hugo Boumous serves the third game of a four-match suspension for abusing a referee.

Otherwise, Sergio Lobera has a full squad to choose from as he bids to turnaround the club's form.

Head-to-Head

Mumbai City hold a 6-4 head to head record over Odisha with three draws in the 13 previous meetings.

The Islanders were 2-0 winners over Odisha in December with Bartholomew Ogbeche and Rowllin Borges getting the goals.

Predictions

Mumbai City need two big wins to finish the season if they are to stand a chance of finishing top. Even that might not be enough, but they should be up to thumping sorry Odisha.

Odisha are destined to finish bottom and the season can't finish soon enough for them. Expect goals.
