Match Preview
As Kerala Blasters prepare to host Odisha FC at the Jawaharlal Nehru International Stadium on January 13, both teams find themselves in contrasting form. Kerala's recent performances have been inconsistent, with just one win in their last five matches (DWDLL), while Odisha has shown resilience, managing two wins and three draws in the same period (WDLWD). Historically, Kerala has dominated this fixture, winning seven of the last ten encounters, which could provide them with a psychological edge.
One key angle to consider is the likelihood of both teams scoring, as evidenced by the head-to-head statistics where eight of the last ten matches have seen both teams find the net. With odds of 1.53 for BTTS, this could be a promising bet, especially given Kerala's attacking prowess at home and Odisha's ability to respond in kind. Expect an engaging contest, where both sides will be eager to secure vital points in their pursuit of a playoff spot.
