PRIVIEW ; punjab fc vs kerala blasters
Both Punjab FC and Kerala Blasters are currently outside the playoff zone.
Punjab FC is set to host the Kerala Blasters at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi on Sunday, marking their first attempt to reach the Indian Super League (ISL) playoffs. Both teams are in pursuit of vital points; the question remains, which team will emerge victorious?
Punjab FC
The Shers have faced a challenging run, suffering defeats in their last three ISL matches, the most recent being a 3-1 setback against Mohun Bagan last week. Under the guidance of Panagiotis Dilmperis, the team has accumulated 18 points from 12 ISL fixtures, placing them 8th in the league standings.
Kerala Blasters
Similarly, Kerala Blasters are experiencing difficulties, having lost four of their last five ISL encounters. Currently positioned 10th in the league table, they have garnered 14 points from 14 matches. Their recent 1-0 defeat to Jamshedpur FC has intensified the pressure, as the prospect of securing a playoff spot appears increasingly distant
