With seven goals, Duffy is Mohun Bagan’s top scorer in the league this season. The Scot possesses good heading ability and his movements behind opposition defences have made him one of the deadliest goalscorers this season.

However, to score past Aizawl’s influential centre-back Zohmingliana Ralte will not be a cakewalk for Duffy. The defender has been a commanding presence in the Reds’ backline, helping his team to seven clean sheets this season. With Duffy’s aerial prowess, Ralte will need to bring his A-game on Saturday for Aizawl to have any chance of making their home advantage count.

These key battles will play a big part in deciding which way the result swings. While Mohun Bagan can win the title with a win tomorrow, Aizawl can keep dreaming if they stop their more illustrious opponents from winning. It will all come down to 90 minutes of football in the heights of Aizawl to determine who finishes atop the Indian football ladder this season.
