What’s at Stake for Both the Teams?

This is the first time Staikos Vergetis' team has been able to win two games in a row in the Indian Super League 2024 season, with the tactician conceding that his players are more suited to the top tier's challenges after the first few months.

They now have the chance to win back-to-back home games for the first time, and such runs should serve the team well in the coming games. Vergetis had previously stated that the team was having difficulty adjusting to the ISL's rapid shifts.

With momentum on both sides, we'll see if Punjab FC can play with the same confidence and courage as they did in the previous two meetings.

The previous match between the two teams ended in a goalless draw in Jamshedpur earlier this season. They will play Punjab FC away from home for the first time. However, they have won only once in their last five encounters with an opponent for the first time on away turf in the ISL, losing and drawing twice each.

Their goal-scoring woes from earlier in the season have been addressed, with each scoring once in the previous five games. Jamshedpur FC will be combative in the middle, making for an exciting match on Thursday.
