BENGALURU: After a loss and four draws in their last five outings, Bengaluru FC will face an uphill task to get back to winning ways as they take on last season's shield winners Mumbai City FC at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium in Bengaluru on Friday.
City, who are regrouping after the exit of flamboyant coach Des Buckingham, have lost just once in their last 13 away games in ISL and that was here at the Fortress last season. It would thus be a great chance for the Blues to repeat that win as MCFC shifted their focus to the ISL after a long break which saw them lose all their matches in the AFC Champions League. However, the Islanders, who are fifth with 11 points from five games, will try to close the gap with FC Goa who have 19 from seven games.
