28 Apr
Summary
- Match moved to Goa's Fatorda Stadium due to West Bengal elections.
- Odisha FC struggles in 13th place with six points from eight games.
- East Bengal aims for fourth place with a win, currently sixth.
The Indian Super League match between East Bengal FC and Odisha FC has been relocated to Goa's Fatorda Stadium. Originally scheduled for Salt Lake Stadium, the fixture was moved due to election preparations in West Bengal, with Goa now hosting three of Odisha FC's home games this season. The match is set to take place on Tuesday, April 28, 2026.
Odisha FC has faced a challenging campaign, currently sitting in 13th place with only six points from eight matches. Their recent form has been poor, with just one win in their last seven league games, and a victory is vital for their morale and league position.
East Bengal FC enters the match with momentum, holding sixth place in the standings. A win against Odisha could see them climb to fourth, significantly improving their chances of reaching the playoffs. However, East Bengal will be without Miguel Figuera due to a red card suspension, while Odisha FC is monitoring the fitness of Rahul KP.
