Currently occupying the third position with 21 points, Odisha FC is two points behind the league leaders, FC Goa, after completing 11 matches. In their recent ISL match, Odisha secured a 1-0 victory against Punjab FC at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, extending their unbeaten streak to seven matches (W5 D2 L0).
Jamshedpur FC, positioned in 10th place with nine points, recently ended a seven-match winless streak by defeating Hyderabad FC 5-0 at GMC Balayogi Stadium in their last league match.
The previous encounter between Odisha FC and Jamshedpur FC in the Indian Super League resulted in a 1-0 victory for Odisha at JRD Tata Sports Complex on December 01. Roy Krishna scored the decisive goal for Odisha in the 56th minute.
Roy Krishna has been a pivotal force in Odisha’s attack this season, leading the club with five goals, making him one of the top scorers in the league. Three of his goals have been crucial first goals of the match.
On the other side, Daniel Chima has been a key contributor to Jamshedpur’s goal-scoring efforts, finding the net five times, including two match-opening goals. He is currently tied for third among the league’s top scorers in the 2023/2024 season.
Odisha FC has maintained an unbeaten record at home this season, securing four wins and one draw in five ISL contests. They also boast a five-match home unbeaten streak (W4 D1 L0) dating back to September 23 against Chennaiyin FC. Meanwhile, Jamshedpur FC aims to improve their away form, having recorded one win, one draw, and four losses in league away contests this season.
In their recent six league matches, Odisha FC has won four and drawn two, showcasing a strong run of form. Conversely, Jamshedpur FC has won one, drawn one, and lost four in their last six matches.
While historical statistics favor Jamshedpur FC, Odisha FC’s recent form and momentum give them a significant edge. Their defensive solidity and counter-attacking threat can be difficult to break down. However, Jamshedpur FC shouldn’t be underestimated, especially with their home advantage and attacking firepower.
This match has the potential to be a tight affair with a slight edge for Odisha FC: 1-0 or 2-1. Their recent form, confidence, and tactical organization offer a slight advantage. However, Jamshedpur FC’s home crowd and attacking potential can’t be ignored. Remember, football is unpredictable! Expect a passionate encounter that could swing either way depending on individual brilliance and tactical adjustments.

Kalinga Stadium is a multi-purpose international sports complex located in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India. The stadium is situated in the heart of Bhubaneswar near the Nayapalli area and is owned by the Government of Odisha, operated by the Sports and Youth Services.
The foundation stone of Kalinga Stadium was laid by the former chief minister of Odisha, Biju Patnaik, in 1978. Established in 2010, the stadium gained widespread reputation for successfully hosting the “90 Days Challenge” for the 2017 Asian Athletics Championships.
The stadium offers a wide range of facilities, including provisions for athletics, football, field hockey, tennis, table tennis, basketball, volleyball, wall climbing, and swimming. Noteworthy features include an 8-lane synthetic athletics track, high-performance centers, and India’s first Olympic standard pink and blue water-based AstroTurf.
With a capacity of 15,000, the stadium recorded its highest attendance during the start of the Asian Athletics Championships in 2017. Kalinga Stadium has been a venue for various sporting events, including the Asian Athletics Championships in 2017, the Men’s Hockey World Cup in 2018, and the Indian Super League.
It serves as the home ground for the I League Club Indian Arrows since 2018 and the Indian Super League Club Odisha FC since its inception in 2019. The stadium stands as a symbol of Odisha’s commitment to promoting sports and providing world-class infrastructure for athletes and enthusiasts alike.
The Indian Super League (ISL) is the men’s highest level of the Indian football league system. It was founded on 21 October 2013 with the aim of growing the sport of football in India and increasing its exposure in the country. The league is co-promoted by Reliance, Star India, and supported by the All India Football Federation (AIFF).
The ISL began play in October 2014 with eight teams. During its first three seasons, the competition operated without official recognition from the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), which is the governing body for the sport in Asia. It was structured along the same lines as the Indian Premier League, the country’s premier Twenty20 franchise-based cricket competition. Each season lasted just three months, from October to December, and matches were held daily.
However, before the 2017–18 season, the league expanded to ten teams, extended its schedule to six months, and earned recognition from the AFC. The season runs from September to March and includes a 22-round regular season followed by playoffs involving the top six teams, culminating with the ISL Final to determine the champions. At the end of the regular season, the team with the most points is declared the premiers and presented with the League Winners’ Shield.
Currently, the league comprises 12 clubs. ISL clubs gain qualification to the Asian continental club competitions; regular-season premiers qualify directly for the subsequent season’s AFC Cup group stage. The league has received unmatched visibility in a short span of time and is speculated to be one of the top-tier leagues in India after the I-League.
