The games keep coming thick and fast in the Indian Super League and Wednesday see’s a huge clash at the top of the table as Kerala Blasters take on Mumbai City. Both sides sit in 4th and 5th place in the league and the winner of this crucial contest will be in prime position to reach the end of season playoffs.

Match result

This is arguably one of the games of the season as 5th place Kerala Blasters lock horns against Mumbai City who are just one place and one point above them in 4th. Both teams could still technically finish top of the table but it’s likely that this match will see who secures the final playoff spot in the league and advance to the playoffs. It’s set to be a fascinating match up between between two teams in decent form. For defending champions Mumbai things have clicked at the right time, with Mumbai taking 12 points from the last 15 available. The wheels have slightly come off for Kerala with them only just taking seven points from the last fifteen. Kerala know that this is a must win match for them and can’t afford any further slip ups. Kerala run out comfortable 3-0 winners in the previous fixture these sides played this season and Mumbai will fancy their chances of reversing the result here. Jamshedspur at home are marginal favourites but the smart play might be Mumbai and at the prices we think Mumbai could be the way to bet.

Under 2.5 goals

Considering what is on the line in this match this could be one of the tightest matches of the season and the smart play might be on backing under 2.5 goals. In the last five matches between the pair only twice have we seen over 2.5 goals and considering the circumstances we hope that the cageyness of this game will hope that we see the under come in again.

Both teams to score

Linked to our prediction above, we think that it might be worth backing both teams not to find the back of the net in this one. Only twice in the last five head to head clashes have both teams been able to find the back of the net. With their being so much on the line it could be that this game stays 0-0 for a long time. The first goal is absolutely crucial here, but we think it might take a while to be scored and if this is the case backing both teams not to score could be the best way to play.
