The Gaurs lead the Indian Super League (ISL) charts with 16 points from seven games and can further consolidate their position with a win. However, if they suffer a loss at the hands of Bengaluru FC, the club from the south will move to the summit.
The match will also see two supreme attacks go up against each other. While Ferran Corominas and Edu Bedia lead the charge for Goa, Miku and Sunil Chhetri will be Bengaluru's flag bearers.
In Hugo Boumous and Edu Bedia, Goa have two most creative players who have the ability to unlock stubborn defences, and then there is Corominas who gives finishing touches to moves like nobody else.
Bengaluru have been boosted by the news that Chhetri is fit to feature in the game after missing the recent international break with an injury. While Chhetri has four goals to his name, all eyes will be on Miku as well.
The last time the two sides met in Goa in 2017, the hosts triumphed in a seven-goal thriller.
FC Goa have scored a staggering 21 goals from 42 shots on target this season. They boast the passing accuracy of 77.7 per cent and have managed to keep one cleansheet.
Bengaluru have scored 10 goals from 20 shots on target. They have the passing accuracy of 68.35 per cent and kept two clean sheets.
FC Goa and Bengaluru FC have faced each other twice with both winning one game apiece.
