Tiddim Road Athletic Union vs. Namdhari FC: Winning Prediction

TRAU and Namdhari will clash in a crucial match at Kalyani Stadium as they strive to avoid relegation. In their recent I-League encounter, Namdhari suffered a 1-0 defeat against Mohammedan at Namdhari Stadium, extending their winless streak to six matches (W0 D1 L5). This leaves them in 12th place with five points, just one point away from safety with two matches remaining.

TRAU currently sits in the last position with four points, trailing by two points from safety and also having two matches left. They secured their first league victory in the 2023/2024 season with a 3-0 win at home against Inter Kashi, breaking a seven-match losing streak.

Notably, this will be the first I-League encounter between TRAU and Namdhari. Namdhari, led by Imanol Arana, who has scored twice, seeks to improve their standing. On the other hand, Robinson Singh has been a standout performer for TRAU, leading the club with two goals.

In their recent six league matches, TRAU has won one and lost five, while Namdhari has drawn one and lost five, highlighting the significance of the upcoming match for both teams in their battle against relegation.

While Namdhari FC’s defensive solidity shouldn’t be underestimated, TRAU’s current form and home advantage make them the clear favorites:

  • Their recent victories, including a 3-0 thrashing of NEROCA FC, showcase their attacking prowess.
  • Komolpreet’s scoring form is a major threat, and the midfield can dictate the tempo.
  • However, Namdhari’s defensive resilience could frustrate TRAU and force a draw if they can exploit any chinks in the armor.

We presict a TRAU victory with a possible score of 2-0, but caution that a determined Namdhari FC can hold them to a draw.

Currently, the I-League is contested by 13 clubs. The winners get promoted to the Indian Super League. The I-League operates on a system of promotion and relegation with the I-League 2. Since the inception of the I-League, a total of seven clubs have been crowned champions. Dempo has won the most titles in league history, being crowned champions three times.

The league announced a change in their foreign-player restrictions with the new rule being that all the clubs could sign four foreigners – three non-Asian and one which must be Asian.
