Kerala Blasters FC will play host to ATK Mohun Bagan when the two sides square off for their second match of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2022-23 season on Sunday, October 16. The two ISL outfits will clash at the Jawaharlal Nehru International Stadium in Kochi.
The Yellow Tuskers registered a win in their season opener against East Bengal FC. But the Kolkata giants fell victim against a determined Chennaiyin FC and lost their season opener. There will be some pressure on the ATK Mohun Bagan gaffer going into this match.
Meanwhile, the Yellow Tuskers will be looking to register their first against the Kolkata giants in the ISL. They haven't had a single win against the Mariners in this competition. Ivan Vukomanovic's side will take an inspired approach after they managed to beat another Kolkata-based outfit on their home turf.
