Pune: Already assured of a spot in the semifinals, Mumbai City FC will be looking for a confidence-boosting win when they take on Pune City in a ‘Maharashtra derby’ at the Indian Super League here Saturday.
The Islanders, who have already qualified for the semi-finals, can possibly secure the third spot with a win. If NorthEast United manage to pip Kerala Blasters, Jorge Costa’s men will have to play league leaders Bengaluru FC.
Mumbai City, after being in a rut of sorts following the international break, finally jolted into action in their last game and beat ATK 3-1 to seal a top-four spot. Key to that performance was the return to goal-scoring ways of star striker Modou Sougou who grabbed a hat-trick. (PTI)
