Tuesday's offering from the Indian Super League comes from Mumbai as 5th place Mumbai hosts bottom place Northeast United. Both sides are on a rotten run of form with both of these teams having only picked up two points from the last fifteen available. Both teams need to desperately stop the dreadful current run of form they are on and will be seeing this as a vital opportunity to pick up a vital three points.

Match result

It's hard to have a great degree of confidence in either side, but we will just back Mumbai to emerge victorious. Northeast United's away form is the worst in the league. From the five away matches that they have played this season, Mumbai has only managed to pick up one point on their travels – suffering four consecutive defeats. Mumbai have been better away from home this season but have managed to pick up two wins at home and against a side who could be bereft of confidence here, we will back them to win what is bound to be a tight and cagey match.

Over 2.5 goals

This is a match where we think we will see goals. Both Mumbai and Northeast have poor defensive records and struggle to keep clean sheets. Mumbai have seen over 2.5 goals in four of their last five matches, whilst Northeast have seen over 2.5 goals in three of their last five. In the last five contests between the sides – over 2.5 goals have been achieved in three of the last five, which include the last two contests. In hoping that this could be an open game between two evenly matched sides, backing over 2.5 goals seems the smart way to play.

Both teams to score

In another hard market to call, we will side with both teams to score here. Mumbai at home haven't scored in their last two home matches but we are hoping that is just a blip and they will return to scoring ways here. Northeast away from home although they haven't been winning have been competitive and have scored in each of their last five away contests and we think that backing both teams to score is the way to play.
