ODI vs BEN Match Preview


Odisha FC have witnessed a historical season by qualifying for the AFC Cup knockouts in their first attempt at the continental stage. They also remain in the hunt for the ISL Shield sitting in third with just two points separating them from the first place. Now, the Juggernauts involved themselves in the Super Cup defence, hosted on their soil, which made their Asian Cup dream a reality. Interestingly, Odisha FC starts Kalinga Super Cup 2024 against the very opponent they beat in the final in May last year. Sergio Lobera’s men were also involved in a thrilling 3-2 victory over Bengaluru FC from two goals down in the ISL outing at the Kalinga Stadium as well. The Kalinga Warriors have not lost a single game in any competition since then stitching up a massive 11-game unbeaten run and registering nine victories in that period. The chance for Odisha FC now to make a hat-trick of wins against the Blues to make an early claim for the top spot in a group also containing the heavyweights FC Goa and new I-League side Inter Kashi.

Bengaluru FC reached three cup finals last season including the Super Cup but managed to win only the Durand Cup in 2022. Nevertheless, it was a success story under Simon Grayson which the Blues failed to replicate this season leading to the sacking of their head coach. New appointment Gerard Zaragoza made an unbeaten start to his stint at the club in the two games he got. While the team secured only their second victory of the season in his first game in charge against Jamshedpur FC, a 1-0 triumph through a Javi Hernandez penalty, Zaragoza’s side needed a late equalizer from Sivasakhti Narayanan to rescue a 1-1 draw against NorthEast United in their final game of 2023. The lingering issue in the team remains which the Spaniard needs to sort out in the Super Cup campaign and without two of the club’s best players unavailable due to the Asian Cup. It will require a lot from them to come first in a potential ‘group of death’ with two high-flying ISL sides in it.

ODI vs BEN Team News


Odisha FC will have to deal with the absence of their first-choice keeper Amrinder Singh who has joined national team duties in the Asian Cup. Lalthuammawia Ralte is set to don the gloves in his place previously making an appearance in the Super Cup. The Juggernauts will field the striking duo of Diego Mauricio and Roy Krishna upfront once again with the former Bengaluru FC striker combining for 5 goals in the last four games. Lobera is expected to make only one change from their impressive 4-1 comeback victory over Jamshedpur FC with Mourtada Fall coming into the starting XI.  

For Bengaluru FC, they will miss two of their crucial performers custodian Gurpreet Singh Sandhu and skipper Sunil Chettri for the Asian Cup in Qatar. Amrit Gope and Sivasakhti Narayanan are likely to fill up the void. The Blues also have an injury crisis in defence with both foreign center-backs Aleksandar Jovanovic and Slavko Damjanovic carrying issues ahead of the tournament. Javi Hernandez will be the main creator for the side again having scored 2 goals and provided 1 assist in the previous edition of the Super Cup.
