ISL 2020-21: Bengaluru FC vs Mumbai City FC - Match Preview, Telecast, Live Stream Details, and Prediction

Match 48 of the 2020-21 Indian Super League (ISL) season sees Bengaluru FC take on Mumbai City FC, at the Fatorda Stadium in Margoa, Goa, on Tuesday evening.

Bengaluru FC take on second-placed Mumbai City FC in an attempt to arrest their slump and pick up a win after losing two games straight. The Blues lost their last two games against ATK Mohun Bagan and Jamshedpur FC by a solitary goal and will need to be at their best against the high-flying Islanders, who are unbeaten in their last seven matches.

Mumbai have conceded just once in the second half, while seven of Bengaluru's 11 goals have been scored after the break. In six previous meetings between these two sides, Mumbai City FC have beaten Bengaluru FC three times while the Blues have won just twice.
