KOLKATA: With the wound of narrowly missing out on the Super Cup glory last Sunday still fresh, Odisha FC will look to leave behind the final defeat and come back to winning ways as they begin their Indian Super League (ISL) second leg sojourn at home on Friday.
Odisha were on a 15-game unbeaten streak (across ISL, AFC Cup & Super Cup) before that 2-3 loss to East Bengal, out of those they won a staggering 13 games. When they host Kerala Blasters at Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar, Odisha will be chasing nothing less than a victory. But up against a side who enjoyed top position on the league table going into the long break for Super Cup, the Kalinga Warriors will have their task cut out to let the juggernaut roll on once again.
