ATK Mohun Bagan will play hosts to Odisha FC in a knockout game for a place in the 2022-23 Indian Super League semifinals at the Salt Lake Stadium on Saturday, March 4.
The Mariners have made it to the playoffs, finishing third in the table while Odisha FC have qualified for the knockouts for the first time in the club's history.
The Green and Maroon Brigade have qualified for the playoffs a third straight season and will be hoping that they can get to the business end this time around. The team come into this fixture behind two big wins over rivals Kerala Blasters, followed by a win in the Kolkata derby over East Bengal FC.
Odisha FC, on the other hand, has largely been consistent throughout the campaign but their away form is definitely of concern, with the team having won just three of their ten away games and will need to be at their very best in this high-intensity clash. The team come into this fixture having lost their last group-stage game to Jamshedpur FC.
In terms of head-to-head, ATK Mohun Bagan has won three of the six clashes, while the remaining three have ended in draws.
ATK Mohun Bagan: Vishal Kaith; Asish Rai, Pritam Kotal, Slavko Damjanovic, Subhasish Bose; Glan Martins, Carl McHugh; Manvir Singh, Hugo Boumous, Ashique Kuruniyan; Dimitri Petratos
