The upcoming game is a good opportunity for both outfits to record their first points in the league.
Mohammedan SC is going to welcome FC Goa at the Kishore Bharati Krirangan, Kolkata on 21 September 2024 in their next Indian Super League (ISL) assignment. The first-ever ISL match for the Black & White Brigade did not go as planned as NorthEast United took away the three points thanks to a solitary goal from Alaeddine Ajaraie in the dying minutes.
The upcoming contest at the Kishore Bharati Krirangan presents a good opportunity for Mohammedan SC to prove its quality. Their opponents enter the contest after a defeat against Jamshedpur FC and will be under pressure to deliver.
Here is what to expect from the ISL contest between the two :
The Stakes
Mohammedan SC
Mohammedan SC must do everything in its capacity to secure a win or at least a draw to open its points account in the Indian Super League. Despite putting in a decent performance, the club succumbed to a defeat by the Highlanders in their previous contest. The newcomers into the league need to silence their critics.
FC Goa
FC Goa has high expectations to fulfill. The club has shown ambition by securing the signatures of key foreign and domestic players. With Manolo Marquez at the helm, the general expectation is that Goa will challenge for trophies. Therefore, putting points on the board is of paramount importance for the Gaurs.

Mohammedan SC must score in the upcoming contest to begin their goalscoring account in the ISL. The newly promoted side is yet to score after failing to do so in their opening match. To that end, Cesar Manzoki is set to play a vital role. The target man showed good ball-holding capabilities. For the sake of his employers and a win, he needs to step up to finish the chances.
Armando Sadiku (FC Goa)
Armando Sadiku is the most dangerous attacker in FC Goa’s lineup. The forward loves to find the back of the net and scored in the previous game to kickstart his individual season positively. The former Mohun Bagan SG striker brings a winning mentality to the club and can hurt the MDSC defence if they are not careful.
