Mumbai City is set to host ATK in another exciting clash of IFL on Saturday. The thrilling contest will be played at Mumbai Football Arena. The game is scheduled to kick off at 7:30 PM IST. This will be the second encounter between these two teams in this season. Their last clash ended in a 2-2 draw.
Mumbai City has now won three consecutive games and are now unbeaten in six matches. Their third win came against Hyderabad as Modou Sougou’s double took them to an edgy 2-1 win. It was Mumbai City’s first home win of the season. The team is going strength to strength and is currently standing at the fourth spot with 16 points.
After two winless games, ATK bounced back as they defeated Bengaluru in a close contest. The Antonio López’s side opted an aggressive approach and took the lead through a David Williams strike just after the break.
ATK’s defender were also spot on as they did not allow Bengaluru’s forwards to have a meaningful effort on target. ATK now is sitting comfortably on the second spot and will look to topple Goa from the first position by clinching a win against Mumbai but it won’t be so easy.
