Preview: East Bengal vs FC Goa

East Bengal:

Carles Cuadrat is facing pressure from the East Bengal faithful after his side’s disappointing start to the season and the manner of their recent defeats. Fortunately for the Spaniard, this is still early season and his side’s momentum can change with one decisive win. East Bengal will have a devoted East Bengal crowd behind them on their home turf and Carles Cuadrat will urge the players to take in the positive energy of the supporters to fuel their performance. He’ll need his players to be much more clinical in finishing their chances and also maintain the utmost concentration throughout the game. A big win can be a breath of fresh air to give the squad the lift it needs to push for consistency, while a draw or defeat can pile on even more questions on the Kolkata giants.

FC Goa:

Manolo Marquez has realized that juggling between the FC Goa and India national team job won’t be an easy task, with his FC Goa side starting the season in an underwhelming fashion. The Spanish gaffer needs to reinvigorate the spirits of his players, getting them to be more confident in compiling beautiful attacking moves and being more decisive in the final third too. FC Goa has to tap into their irresistible rhythm in building up beautiful attacking moves, but also be defensively stronger than they’ve been in recent games. Manolo Marquez needs a win to kick-start his side’s quest to compete for top places because more points loss can add to the frustration of the fans and leave them toiling in the bottom places.

Key Players to Watch: East Bengal Vs FC Goa

Madih Talal (East Bengal)
Madih Talal has had a slow start to his East Bengal career, finding the transition from Punjab FC to be not so easy. He’s produced some underwhelming performances, but a few bad games don’t take away his immense quality in the final third. Talal had 16 goal contributions (six goals, 10 assists) in the ISL last season and just needs one big game to rediscover his confidence and swagger. Talal just needs to be a bit more composed with his distribution and improve his decision-making with the final third passes. He won’t find it easy against a compact FC Goa side, but Talal needs to use his clever off-the-ball movement ability as well as his creative touches to unlock the Gaurs’ backline. Talal might get confidence from having thousands of fans cheering for him in his new home ground and will look to lift his teammates with his slick passes to create big chances as well as well as timing his runs better to get back to scoring ways.

Brison Fernandes (FC Goa)
Brison Fernandes has been one of the standout players for FC Goa in the early game and has proven to be a menacing figure in the wide areas. Not only is he a menace with his impressive sprints and dribbling ability, but Fernandes has proven to be quite the creative threat for his side too. He has created four goal-scoring chances so far this season, more than any other teammate and proven to be a decent Brandon Fernandes replacement. Brison will look to finally get his first goal contribution by tormenting the East Bengal backline with his persistent forward runs and keep delivering inviting balls into the final third. He also needs to get himself into more scoring positions to elevate his side’s attacking prowess and get his side their first win of the season.
