Kerala Blasters vs Odisha FC Prediction: Kerala badly want a win at home

Kerala Blasters will welcome Odisha FC in Gameweek 5 of the Indian Super League at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Kochi. Odisha has won only one of the last five games against Kerala Blasters but are coming into the game on back of a 6-1 win in AFC Cup. Who will win? 

Kerala Blasters Form

Kerala Blasters face mounting pressure to perform. In their last ISL match against NorthEast United FC, they settled for a draw, which was a letdown for the team. The Yellow Army had ample attacking opportunities and home support but couldn't capitalize on them. With another home game on the horizon, the team is under pressure to secure a win, especially considering the good form of Odisha FC.

Kerala Blasters Predicted lineup

Sachin Suresh (GK), Sandeep Singh, Hormipam Ruivah, Pritam Kotal, Naocha Huidrom Singh, Danish Farooq, Vibin Mohanan, Adrian Luna, Daisuke Sakai, Kwame Peprah, Dimitrios Diamantakos

Odisha FC Form

Odisha FC is heading into the match against Kerala Blasters on the back of a remarkable 6-1 victory over Maziya S&RC in the AFC Cup. Despite this, their performance in the ISL has been worrisome, with just one win in three games. The team must regain momentum and stay competitive with the top teams in the league standings.

Odisha FC's possible lineup

Amrinder Singh (GK), Amey Ranawade, Mourtada Fall, Carlos Delgado, Jerry Lalrinzuala, Puitea, Ahmed Jahouh, Isak Vanlalruatfela, Roy Krishna, Cy Goddard, Diego Mauricio

Expert Betting Tips

Kerala Blasters are relying on the advantage of playing at home to return to their winning form. Historically, they have performed exceptionally well in front of their home supporters. Last season, they only suffered three home defeats and managed to secure consecutive victories against their upcoming opponent at home.

On the other hand, Odisha has a concerning recent head-to-head record against Kerala Blasters. In their last five encounters, Odisha has secured just one victory, which was achieved at their home ground a year ago.

We expect Kerala to win this game with more than 2.5 goals scored in the game.
