India vs Bangladesh: Build-up

The Indian women’s team is dominating the ongoing 2022 SAFF Women’s Championship. The tournament is taking place in Kathmandu, Nepal and attracting a lot of attention. India is the defending champion; in fact, the nation has won all five of the previous editions of the tournament. Judging by the opening two matches and their outcomes, it will be difficult for any opposition to stop the juggernaut that is the Indian women’s football team.

The upcoming match against Bangladesh will be the final Group A fixture, one that India will hope to win comfortably and finish as group leaders. Their opponents have also won their opening two matches and have a good chance to cause an upset on Tuesday.

Here is what to expect from the upcoming match between India and Bangladesh at the 2022 SAFF Women’s Championship.

The Stakes

The Indian women’s team is showing their quality at the tournament. Defeating Pakistan 3-0 in the opener and then demolishing Maldives 9-0 in the second game has sent a huge statement of intent. There is a fierce focus on defending the title and winning the SAFF Women’s Championship for the sixth time in a row. Winning the upcoming game and finishing as group leaders will be the immediate objective that Suren Chhetri’s team will look to achieve. 

Bangladesh is into the knockouts and may rest some key players ahead of this game. However, the outfit could see the upcoming clash as a chance to cause a huge upset too, especially after an impressive 6-0 win against Pakistan in their recent outing. The main aim of the team will be to keep the score respectable, considering the humiliation Blue Tigresses caused to Maldives in the previous game.
