Bottom-placed Mumbai, who will miss services of injured Leo Costa, were unable to score against Bengaluru, who thrashed them 2-0.
The hosts have some good forwards in Balwant Singh, Rafa Jorda, Everton Santos who need to fire and convert chances. Mumbai City head coach Alexandre Guimaraies would also be keen that his defenders and mid-fielders put up a spirited show and dont concede any goals.
Guimaraies today admitted that his side was more prepared for tomorrows game then the opening one.
We have a tough game. Goa did very well against Chennayin. We have to improve our performance from the first game. For tomorrow, we are more complete in our squad compared to first game and we are prepared, the Costa Rican told reporters ahead of the game.
"So we are prepared and are hoping that its going to be a good game and we go for a win, Guimaraies added.
Goa, who are at number four in the table, on the other hand started on a winning note by defeating Chennayin FC 3-2. And they will look to continue the winning streak.
With forwards like Adrian Colunga Perez, Ferran Telechea, Manvir Singh and a host of good mid-fielders and defenders, their coach Sergio Lobero would expect a complete performance at the Andheri Sports Complex.
The FC coach also said that striker Collunga is injured.
The only injury we have is Collunga. He failed to recover from the injury he was carrying last week but beyond that the team remains the same, he said.
