Mumbai City vs Kerala Blasters: Build-up

Mumbai City will square off against Kerala Blasters at the Mumbai Football Arena (MFA) for their upcoming fixture of the ISL 2022-23 season on Sunday.

The two teams are in a sublime run of form so far. The Islanders have not dealt with a single defeat thus far whereas the Blasters have been unbeaten for the last eight games with their last loss coming as far back as in late October against Odisha FC. Des Buckingham’s men have arguably rolled over sides on many an occasion in this campaign but Ivan Vukomanovic’s men promise to put forth a tough contest in the backyard of the home side.

Mumbai have been relentless, and at times flawless, this year. But, they have just slipped down from the top spot to Hyderabad FC, who have gained an advantage of a single point over them. The Nizams have also played an additional game as compared to Mumbai and the latter in all certainty will make up for this deficit on Sunday.

The Blasters have regained confidence and charisma after an indifferent start to the campaign. They have steadily moved their way up and sit third in the table, five points behind the second-placed Mumbai, at the end of 12 games. A playoff qualification is all but secured unless they mess up big time in the next eight games.
