The league toppers will be the favourites going ahead into the finals. Coach Sanjeev Baliyan doesn't have much work to do and shall go in with the same starting 7 as in the semifinals. If Rahul Chaudhari doesn't perform well then there might be chances of Bhavani Rajput sneaking in as a substitute or playing with an extra defender strengthening the defence based on the situation.
