Pune FC would look to reverse their fortunes when they host Bengaluru FC in a crucial I-League 2013-14 Round 9 match at the Shivaji Chhatrapati Sports Complex, at Balewadi tomorrow.
Pune FC would be looking to get over the set back of the away encounter in familiar surrounds.
Both teams clash for the first time making tomorrow's encounter a high-voltage face off.
With only one point separating the two teams in the top-four (Bengaluru FC - 2nd, 14 pts; Pune FC - 4th, 13 pts), tomorrow's encounter will be crucial for both the teams.
While Salgaocar FC stay atop with 16 points, a positive result with a combination of other results would see either Bengaluru FC or Pune FC assure at least a second spot while also having a chance to top the table going into the international break.
After losing the tag of being the only unbeaten team in the league, Pune FC would look for perfect home record - three wins out of three and no goals conceded - as inspiration.
On the other hand, Bengaluru FC's good start has been aided by their four wins picked up in their first five games of the league, all at home. However, the visitors are still finding their feet on the travels having earned only a point in their two away games so far.
