LIVE - ISL 2019 | FC Pune City vs Bengaluru FC
ISL Media
Bengaluru FC will restart their ISL campaign after the first break with a trip to Pune to take on the winless hosts in the 15th match of the ISL season. Bengaluru will start the game as the favourites but Pune will receive a huge boost with the return of Marcelinho to the starting XI.
Bengaluru started their season with a 1-0 win against Chennaiyin FC in what was a rematch of the final from the last edition of the final. However, in their second match, they were unlucky to get just a point as the defence was unable to hold onto the lead that Chhetri had gifted them two minutes from regulation time.
Pune, on the other hand,
Last season, this fixture ended with Bengaluru sealing a 3-1 win while Pune escaped with a draw in Bengaluru. When the two met again in the semi-finals, the duo played out a 0-0 draw in Balewadi before BFC sealed the tie at home with a 3-1 win.
FC Pune City Starting XI : Vishal Kaith (GK), Matt Mills, Adil Khan, Jonathan Vila, Emiliano Alfaro (C), Marcelo Pereira, Nikhil Poojari, Sarthak Golui, Martin Diaz, Ashique Kuruniyan, Sahil Panwar.
