Edu Garcia plays a vital part in ATK Mohun Bagan's scheme of things. Garcia adds the much-needed creativity and flair to ATK Mohun Bagan FC.

Antonio Lopez Habas's side have always been known as a defensively solid unit.

Garcia is used as a ball-player by Habas and has been excellent so far. His vision, creativity and control on the ball allows the other ATK Mohun Bagan players like Roy Krishna and David Williams to get away from their markers, leading to gaps in the opposition defense.

Garcia has also scored a goal along with his exceptional passing accuracy and touches on the ball.

#2 Esmael Goncalves

Chennaiyin FC have the worst goals scored per chances created ratio in the league.

The Marina Machans have been creating a lot of goal-scoring chances throughout the season followed by some exceptional gameplay.

However, Csaba Laszlo's side have rarely managed to find the back of the net.

Esmael Goncalves has finally managed to get in shape and lead the Chennayin FC attacking line-up.

He has scored three goals and made an assist already in just eight ISL matches. He will be tasked with the responsibility to breach the resolute ATK Mohun Bagan FC defense.

Roy Krishna is the primary target-man for ATK Mohun Bagan FC. The Fijian forward stays up the pitch, keeping the opposition defense in check and leads the attacking movements of his side.

Krishna has displayed brilliant combination play with the likes of David Williams, Manvir Singh and Edu Garcia in the final third.

He has the ability to create space himself and go for goals. He has scored six goals in 11 ISL matches so far and is the leading goal-scorer for his side.
