VASCO, Feb 24: With their playoff hopes over and one final game to go, Jamshedpur FC and Bengaluru FC will be aiming to end their Indian Super League campaign on a winning note when they face each other here on Thursday.
Lack of consistency over the course of the season has cost both sides a playoff berth.
Owen Coyle’s Jamshedpur currently find themselves sixth on the table, two points above their opponents.
While a draw would be enough for JFC to finish sixth, a defeat could see them lose their spot to Bengaluru. In the previous fixture, JFC stunned the Blues with Stephen Eze’s goal separating the two sides. They would be high on confidence after their 2-0 win over Mumbai City.
For Bengaluru, this is the first time that they have failed to qualify for the ISL playoffs. (PTI)
