Jamshedpur FC

Bengaluru, February 8: Jamshedpur FC will travel to the Sree Kanteerava Stadium to take on Bengaluru FC in a crucial Indian Super League (ISL) encounter on Sunday at 7:30 PM. With the race for the top two intensifying, the Men of Steel will be eager to secure another three points to strengthen their position in the standings.

Currently, Jamshedpur FC sit third on the table with 34 points, just behind FC Goa and Mumbai City FC and with a game in hand. A win in Bengaluru will not only boost their chances of securing a top-two finish but also extend their recent run of good form. The team heads into the fixture on the back of a spirited 3-1 victory over FC Goa at home. That win saw them edge past a direct rival in the title race, and they will look to carry the momentum forward against Bengaluru FC.

In their previous meeting this season, Jamshedpur FC triumphed over Bengaluru FC with a solid 2-1 victory at the Furnace. That result will give the visitors confidence, but they will be wary of a desperate Bengaluru side looking to climb up the table. Bengaluru, struggling in the fifth position of the standings, will be keen to turn their fortunes around with a strong home performance.

Jamshedpur FC head coach Khalid Jamil emphasized the importance of this match, stating, "It’s an away game, and we must be fully prepared. We are in a tight battle for the top two, and this match is crucial for our ambitions. The team is working hard, and we need to carry our momentum forward."

With the competition heating up in the final stretch of the season, Jamshedpur FC will be determined to secure maximum points and continue their push toward the top of the table. The match will be live on JioSports and Sports18 channel
