Azharuddin Mallick | Mohun Bagan | Forward
Ad

Both Yuta and Mallick have not been able to put in any game time for their club so far in this edition of the I-league. Truth be told, the absence of Mallick will be more paramount than the Japanese, despite Yuta having garnered a strong reputation as an able medio.

Last season, Mallick snatched a 2-1 victory against the Red and Golds with his well-placed lob. The fans still remember his brace in IFA Shield that won Mohun Bagan the match by a 2-1 margin against their arch-rivals.
His situation is a bit tricky. Azharuddin is also said to have recovered, but a recovery path from injury can be dicey, to say the least. He remains a doubtful case for the game.
