Odisha FC will be hoping to present Naveen with a victory in their second home match of ISL-9, having come from behind to beat Kerala Blasters 2-1 on October 23. It was the Juggernauts’ first game at Kalinga Stadium after a gap of 982 days, with the league having been played at one centre (Goa) during the last two seasons, because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Odisha FC defender Carlos Delgado urged fans to turn up in numbers for Thursday’s clash.
“We need all of you in Kalinga stadium !! See you tomorrow @JuggernautsOFC @OdishaFC @IndSuperLeague,” tweeted the team’s experienced Spanish recruit.
Odisha FC are currently in third place, with 6 points from 3 matches.
