The Mohun Bagan vs FC match will be played on Wednesday, 30th April at the Kalinga Stadium. Both teams will be aiming to book their spot in the finals of the Super Cup.

The Mariners once again showed why they are the best team in this country. Despite missing several key players, they beat their rival Kerala Blasters by 1-2 to go into the semi-final of the Kalinga Super Cup. Even though the Blasters were the better team as they created many chances but they failed to convert them. After this brilliant win, the players and the coaching staff will be very confident going into this fixture. They will have to be patient and wait for the right opportunity to score a goal, as the Gaurs have one of the best defences in the country. The Mariners will have to be at their best to win this competition.

The Gaurs were losing the game till the 88th minute against Punjab FC, but turned around the game in the last few minutes and won the game by 2-1. Borja Herrera and Mohamed Yasir were the goal scorers for the Gaurs. Since Punjab FC didn't have the experience to manage the game, they failed to win this fixture. This last-minute win shows how resilient the Gaurs are. Now, they are one of the favourites to win this fixture, and surely Manolo Marquez will look to end his coaching tenure with FC Goa on a positive note. This will be a mouthwatering fixture for sure.

Key Players to Watch in Mohun Bagan vs FC Goa

Sahal Abdul Samad (Mohun Bagan)

He was a key player in the match against his former side, Kerala Blasters. He scored his first goal of the season and helped his team reach the semi-final of the Super Cup.

His performance alongside Ashique was the main reason why the Mariners were able to make it into the next round. With his dribbling, he is able to break defences and get past defenders easily. With his quick feet, he is able to score as well as create opportunities for his teammates. Stopping him will be a big task for FC Goa's midfield and defence for sure.

Sahal is a player who can cause a lot of trouble to the Gaurs. Manolo Marquez will surely have some plans to stop him. This season, he played 20 games, in which he scored once and provided one assist.

Dejan Drazic (FC Goa)

The Serbian has faced a lot of criticism from the fans since he is not able to score that much, and his stats are not very impressive. But despite all these criticisms and issues, he has always given his best for the team. He is a player who can take on players with his pace, acceleration and dribbling skills.

He is a lethal player on the wings, and his partnership with Borja and Iker is also very good. He is a type of player who always leaves some impact on the pitch for his team in a positive way, and his attitude also makes him stand out from the rest of the players. This season he has played 25 games, in which he scored one goal and provided three assists.

Mohun Bagan vs FC Goa Prediction

Despite the Mariners having a depleted squad, they will be a tough team to beat. Quality-wise, the Gaurs are a much better team without a doubt.

This will be a tight and competitive fixture for sure, as both teams have players who are capable of making a difference on the field. But most probably, the Gaurs will win this match since they have experienced players in their team who can get the result for them.
