Bengaluru FC are playing for a semi-final spot as they eye their second ISL title.

Indian Super League (ISL) club Bengaluru FC are looking to earn a semi-final berth when they host defending champions Mumbai City FC at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium on Saturday (March 29). The match will be available for live-streaming for fans in India.

The Blues must win this ‘win or go home’ game to stand a chance of making the semi-finals and facing second-placed FC Goa. However, it will be far from an easy task with Petr Kratky’s reigning champions standing in their way. Gerard Zaragoza will be keen for his side to step up and deliver the goods as they battle it out with the Islanders for playoff survival.

Having won their maiden ISL title during the 2018-19 season, the Blues will aspire to excel once again in domestic competition and will be determined to end their season with some silverware.

After a tough 2023-24 ISL campaign, the Blues have shown great spirit in fighting back under the Spaniard, as they look to trump the Islanders on Saturday. Fortunately for coach Zaragoza, his team will enjoy a home advantage after finishing third, and he’ll need the players to feed off their fan’s bubbling energy at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium.

On the other hand, Mumbai City FC had a nervy end to their 2024-25 ISL campaign, with a win over the Blues in matchweek 26 earning them a spot in the playoffs. The Islanders have some dangerous players in their ranks and will be keen to repeat as ISL champions and defend their crown.

Bengaluru has lacked consistency and goals this season, as they had slumps in certain moments of the season. However, the forwards have found the net in crucial games, with Sunil Chhetri netting 12 goals this season. Zaragoza will be banking on the Indian superstar to step up against the Islanders. Chhetri will again be the leading man for Zaragoza against Mumbai, who have conceded goals in the league this season.

The Islanders’ danger man will be Nikolaos Karelis, who can score crucial goals in crucial situations. Karelis had a pretty good outing in the 2024-25 ISL league stages for his side, scoring 10 goals in 18 appearances and producing some bright performances. He will be a focal point inthe attack for Mumbai as they face a tough away game in hostile environment.
