Top 5 contenders for the inaugural edition of the Indian Super Cup 

#4: Minerva Punjab F.C

We have witnessed a revolutionary change in this great team. They are living their dream. Currently placed 2nd on the I-League table, they have risen from being underdogs to being title favourites. Jeakson Singh, India's first and only world cup scorer is a Minerva Academy product.

They are the sole representatives of the north region in I-League. Despite losing to Gokulam, they are still eyeing the top spot, seeing as they are two points behind NEROCA, albeit with two games in hand.

They are solid at the back and have conceded a paltry 14 goals with five clean-sheets. They have scored 20 goals which display their attacking prowess, with Chencho Gyeltshen, their leading goal-scorer, with an impressive tally of 6 goals.

That's the story which the stats tell us. So, let's see if they could triumph in the premiere knockout competition.
