With the festive football calendar in full swing, the action is continuing from far and wide and the Indian Super League brings us some competitive action as take North Wast United take on Mumbai City. This is a contest between the 9th and 1st placed teams in the league and a win here for leaders Mumbai could see them extend their lead at the top to five points.

Handicap -1

As you would expect between two sides at differing ends of the table, Mumbai are the r heavy favourites for the win, so much so it doesn’t make sense to back them to win outright. Instead there is some value to be had by backing Mumbai at -1.  Mumbai have won four of their last five league matches heading into this contest and have won three of these matches by at least two goals. A repeat of that feat would see the handicap at -1 come in and we think with little value on offer this could be the best way to play here.

Over 2.5 goals

The betting angle for the over or under 2.5 market has to be on the over. North East United in three of their last five games have seen the over 2.5 goals occur, whilst the over 2.5 goal mark has been exceeded in four of Mumbai’s last five matches. When these sides meet the over 2.5 market has been exceeded in only two of the last five head to head contests but we will be hoping that will be added too here.

Both teams to score

Despite sitting at the top of the table Mumbai have struggled for clean sheets only keeping one in their last five matches, it’s a similar take for North East United as they too struggle to keep the ball at the back of their own net and have also only kept one clean sheet in their last five matches. Perhaps unsurprisingly with both of these teams struggling to keep clean sheets, both sides have been involved in a lot of recent matches where both teams have scored. With both sides having some pretty severe defensive frailties the smart play has to be on both sides finding the back of the net.
