NEW DELHI: The bottom two teams of the Hero Indian Super League meet in a 12th round must win game of sorts if they are to keep alive their hopes for a top four berth.
Rock-bottom Mumbai City FC (12 points) are theoretically capable of making the last four though, as are hosts FC Pune City who are one point ahead.
The last time these two teams met in Mumbai, Peter Reid’s men trounced Franco Colomba’s troops 5-0, with a hattrick from André Moritz, the only one in the competition still.
Pune will hope to reverse the result this time in the second ‘Maharashtra derby’ as they have turned into a more compact outfit since, especially at home. Both sides are winless in their last five games and it will be a battle of equals in that respect, expect that Pune will enjoy the home advantage playing in front of their fans.
