SC Delhi aims for redemption at home as they host Mohammedan SC

Both sides will look to climb the ISL table with a win

SC Delhi will lock horns against Mohammedan SC as they eye a strong win over them at home on Sunday, April 26, 2026, from 17:00 IST at the JLN Stadium, Delhi.

Mohammedan SC will be hoping to take something positive from their next outing as they prepare for an away clash against SC Delhi. Sitting at the bottom of the Indian Super League (ISL) table, the Black Panthers are unbeaten in their last two matches, though both ended in draws, offering only a slight boost to their campaign.

SC Delhi will look to get the most out of this fixture and will be hoping to move a little upward on the ISL 2025-26 points table

The Stakes

SC Delhi

The Capital club in the Indian Super League 2025-26 season, SC Delhi, has set the bar high and will be ready to host Mohammedan SC at home to look for a comfortable victory.

Perhaps, they are still struggling with their run of form. They are currently in 11th position as they have won two games, drawn two and lost four of them, marking eight points under their belt.

Thomas Tchorz’s SC Delhi will look to turn the tables and snatch all three points from the tie to make a good statement in the standings with 11 points. 

Against a team like Mohammedan SC, who just clinched two important draws, it will be a tricky tie to face off against. SC Delhi may need to score first and count on opponents’ defensive lapses to seal the game with home advantage.

Mohammedan SC

Mohammedan SC, on the other hand, is still looking for its first win and stability in its ISL 2025-26 season. Talked about their previous season, the financial situation and the dilemma that cost them.

The recent form of the team has improved as they got two valuable points from two draws. Black Panthers are still unable to secure a clean victory over any team this season, as they find themselves at the very bottom of the table with two points.

A win over SC Delhi will pump the morale and put Mohammedan in a good shape to fight for their existence in the ISL.

Players to watchout

Matija Babovic ( SC Delhi )

Matija Babovic will be the player to watch out for in the match against Mohammedan SC. His attacking intent and presence are the most important things that could haunt the opposition defense. He can be effective against the home team by using his physical presence and technical control, as his ball control is very sharp and clean.

He will play in different aspects of the game with his clean movement, as we know, Mohammedan SC’s defensive vulnerability. Matija might open the space for players like Joseph Sunny, and then Delhi easily takes those chances and converts them.

Adison Thokchom Singh ( Mohammedan SC )

Mohammedan SC has Adison Thokchom Singh, who will look to haunt the SC Delhi defence quite a bit, as his positional awareness will be the highlight of his game. Against a club like SC Delhi, Adison may cost their defensive line with his physical strength.  

His ability to score and find the back of the net is a threat; also, he is more of a link-up man up top for Mohammedan SC. He scored the last-minute equaliser over Inter Kashi FC.
