KOLKATA: It’s been more than a month since the Super Cup crown slipped out of their hands when East Bengal defeated them in the final at Kalinga Stadium but as Odisha FC take on the same opponents at the same venue in an Indian Super League (ISL) clash in Bhubaneswar on Thursday, a lot has changed in between.
While the home side is comfortably seated atop the league table with 32 points from 16 games, the visitors are jostling at the bottom half to push for the last playoff spot. With 18 points from 16 games, the red and golds are currently two spots and two points adrift of No. 6 Jamshedpur FC (20 points from 17 matches).
