The Blasters became one of the most talked about sides ahead of this season's ISL after the players they signed. On paper, they represented one of the strongest sides in the competition. However, they're yet to score a goal for all of that talent in their squad.

They've had both their games thus far at home in front of their boisterous supporters. However, they haven't been able to make it count and they now have just two points from their first two home games. We have seen sides suffer for not making the most of their home games in the past and the Blasters will be hoping that these draws are the result of some early season struggles.

In their defence, they've not been helped by the opposition. ATK are always a difficult team to beat and Jamshedpur are basically what the Blasters were last season under Coppell, set up not to lose, men behind the ball and tough to fashion chances against.

That being said, the Blasters simply haven't done enough to create as many chances as they would have liked. Jamshedpur, with just 35% possession and almost half as many passes as their opponents, had more shots on target with five compared to the Blasters' two.
