BFC vs MCFC, Indian Super League 2021-22: Rummy Bo Preview, Predictions, & Fantasy Team

Match: Bengaluru FC vs Mumbai City FC

Date: 4th December, 2021

Venue: GMC Athletic Stadium, Goa

Time: 9:30 PM (IST)

Former titans versus reigning champions

As Bengaluru FC takes on the mighty Mumbai City FC, the clash will jog a thousand memories of the past. Despite falling from its earlier grace, BFC has been desperately lunging for a resurgence under the presence of a sequence of new players who are trying to leave a mark on the nation’s bedazzling footballing fabric.

Mumbai City FC will be riding high on confidence as they demolished a formidable ATK Mohun Bagan by a humiliating margin as the preceding year’s finalists were drowned in terms of goal and men. The most impressive part of the contest was a sterling display from the Mumbai youngsters who were hungry for heroics and grabbed the opportunities that came their way by the scruff of their neck.

Despite starting the tournament on a rollicking note as BFC blew away the Highlanders, their momentum has come to a screeching halt with a defeat against Odisha and a draw against the Kerala Blasters. Mumbai, on the contrary, was sublime against Mohun Bagan but will have a couple of concerns with a few gaps in the defence that will need plugging.

BFC vs MCFC Top Picks

Igor Angulo, Mumbai City FC, striker

Igor Angulo is the most lethal striker in the repertoire of Mumbai City FC. He scored a goal and stitched together an assist against the Mariners. He fired two shots on target and completed 9 passes. His positioning sense has so far been the most dangerous aspect of his incursions.

Cleiton Silva, Bengaluru FC, striker

Silva is one of the major threats for Bengaluru as he will be leading the battery for the former champions that has been dampened by the silence of Sunil Chhetri. Silva was pivotal in BFC’s victory against the Highlanders.

Captain & Vice-Captain Selection

Igor Angulo has been one of the most prolific strikers in the current fabric of the league. He played an instrumental role in uplifting Goa to the semis of the preceding edition while he has so far been electrifying for the reigning champions. Vikram Pratap Singh almost single-handedly sank the ship of the Mariners as he opened the scoring for Mumbai City FC, slamming the ball through the legs of Amrinder Singh. He will be an important choice for vice-captaincy considering his knack of shooting from distance and not shying away from any possible situations.
