While the home side is on high having shocked East Bengal in its last match, the visitors have failed to string together a series of good results, managing only two wins so far this season.
ONGC will be looking to extend their unbeaten streak to seven. The once-relegation threatened outfit has looked a well-oiled machine since Santosh Kashyap took over the reins.
Languishing at the 11th position with the same number of points from 13 matches, Salgaocar, on the other hand, will be keen to get a positive result. But coach David Booth is aware of the fact that if they are to bag three points against the hosts, they need to put their best foot forward.
"ONGC have been playing some good football for the last three or four matches. They are very strong at home. There is no hiding from the fact that it will be a difficult game tomorrow. I have confidence in my boys, looking forward to a good game," Booth said.
The Brit also informed that skipper Luciano Sabrosa and Dinesh Singh have been ruled out owing to injuries.
There is no special plan in place for Salgaocar to thwart ONGC's Japanese import Yusa Katsumi who has been in terrific form of late.
"We want to improve and my sole focus is on that. Let's concentrate on ourselves. If we do well, other things will automatically be taken care of," Booth said.
