The Stakes

FC Goa

FC Goa will definitely be the favorites when they take the field in their next match against Punjab FC. They are gonna field a significantly stronger side with quality bench depth at the Kalinga Stadium, a ground which they have played in during the 2024-25 ISL campaign.

Luckily, the Gaurs find themselves in imperious form following a dominant 3-0 win over Gokulam Kerala FC. They will be facing a rejuvenated Shers side who seem to have put the disappointment of the 2024-25 ISL season.

Punjab FC

Although Punjab FC improved their game compared to their performance in the 2024-25 ISL campaign, the Shers have kicked off their Super Cup campaign on the right foot. Punjab seems to have gotten their groove back as they dispatched home favorites Odisha FC by a 3-0 scoreline. 

Punjab have played two matches against FC Goa in ISL 2024-25, which has resulted in losses for the Shers. With the game against the Gaurs coming up, the Shers need to step up their game on Saturday.
