Aizawl: Aizawl FC will be eying for their first home win of the season when they face Punjab FC in an I-League match between two former champions at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium here on Thursday.
Aizawl FC played out a 1-1 draw against defending champions Chennai City FC in their previous outing at home, a result which put them at sixth place in the table with five points. They had played out a goal-less draw against Mohun Bagan at home in the season opening match. The 2016-17 I-League champions have an exciting young squad at their disposal but have lacked in terms of tenacity and scoring goals. Players like Lalnunfela and Joe Zoeherliana have caused serious trouble to their opponents, with the former having already found the back of the net twice. (PTI)
