East Bengal vs Mumbai City Predictions

An improving East Bengal can make life difficult for Mumbai on Tuesday.

I'm putting my money on the home side to win or draw at a very decent price.

East Bengal are unbeaten in 11 of their last 12 matches (all competitions)
East Bengal are unbeaten in 6 of their last 7 matches (ISL)
Mumbai City have failed to win their last 2 matches against East Bengal
Mumbai City have failed to win 4 of their last 7 away matches (ISL)
Mumbai City have lost their last 2 matches

Head to Head

Tuesday sees the ninth match between East Bengal and Mumbai City since 2018. Mumbai holds a four-to-two advantage in the H2H record after a 0-0 draw in their last encounter in December.

East Bengal Form

East Bengal's fine 11-game unbeaten run came to an end on Saturday with a 3-2 defeat at NorthEast United. Despite a spirited performance, Carles Cuadrat's side slipped to their first loss since the start of November.

The Red and Gold Brigade have enjoyed an excellent start to the year, with five successive victories seeing them claim the Indian Super Cup in January.

In the ISL, East Bengal remain ninth in the division with 12 points picked up from 12 games completed.

East Bengal Team News

East Bengal boss Cuadrat has no fresh injury issues to deal with on Tuesday. The Spanish boss is likely to make one or two changes after Saturday's defeat at NorthEast United.

Jordan Elsey remains a long-term absentee with a serious knee injury.

Mumbai City Form

Mumbai City arrive in Kolkata hoping to avoid a third successive defeat after a shock home defeat against Jamshedpur last time out. Having taken a two-goal advantage in the first half, the Islanders conceded three unanswered second-half goals to slip to a painful 3-2 defeat.

Petr Krátký's side have lost two of their last three ISL matches and now find themselves nine points behind league leaders Odisha, albeit with three games in hand.

On their travels, the Islanders have failed to win three of their last four ISL encounters.

Mumbai City Team News

Mumbai boss Krátký has a fully fit and available squad to choose from for Tuesday's trip to Kolkata. Spanish midfielder Iker Guarrotxena could make his first start after debuting as a second-half substitute in the 3-2 defeat against Jamshedpur.

Verdict

East Bengal Club v Mumbai City FC

In what is typically a closely contested fixture, I fancy East Bengal to take a point or more in Kolkata.

My top tip is East Bengal in the double chance market.
