ISL 2019-20 | Game against Bengaluru will be interesting, predicts Josep Gombau

Odisha FC who are sixth on the table with six points will host unbeaten Bengaluru FC at the Balewadi Stadium in Pune on Wednesday. The Kalinga team are coming after three consecutive draws and will be looking to end champions Bengaluru's unbeaten run. Meanwhile, a win will take Bengaluru to the top position in the table.

“I think it will be a very interesting game for the people who will come to the stadium. We are preparing well. The way that we are approaching this game is that, we think, we can win. This is the aim. We will go to take the three points,” added Gombau.

“One thing that we can see clearly is that the last six games have been drawn. I think that this shows there is not a big difference (in quality) between the teams. Sometimes small details decide games. Bengaluru has a very good squad but we have the capacity to get a result.” the Spaniard added.

Odisha FC's star playmaker Xisco Hernandez who was with Josep Gombau at the pre-match press conference expressed his excitement to play against his former side.

The midfielder is in fine form with three goals in six games and is a key player in Odisha midfield. Moreover, the playmaker is confident of a win against his former side.

“The most important thing is the three points. Bengaluru is a good team. It will be a very difficult match. But if the team continues in the same way, with the ball and we don’t make mistakes, I think it is possible to win against Bengaluru,” he said.
