The Kalinga Stadium will host Saturday’s Indian Super League matchup between Odisha (10th and Punjab FC (6th). Both the Juggernauts and the Shers are averaging below 1.5 goals per game this season, which sees us leaning toward a low-scoring affair as our match prediction. 

Odisha FC have yet to find their best form this season, as they prepare to enter this weekend’s fixture with just 10 points (W2 D4 L5) and third-bottom on the standings after 11 games. 

The Kalinga Warriors picked up just their second win of the season last week, beating SC Deli 2-1, but they have only scored 12 goals this term, which is the fourth-fewest in the ISL. 

The hosts have yet to win a home game this season, with all four of their matches here ending in draws. These two sides also played to a 1-1 draw in this exact fixture last season. 

Meanwhile, Punjab FC will be fairly pleased with their season so far. With 19 points after 11 games (W5 D4 L2), they could end this weekend in the top three if results elsewhere go in their favour. 

The Shers held league leaders East Bengal to a goalless draw on the road on Monday, and are now unbeaten in their last four games. They also kept clean sheets in each match during this period. 

The visitors have split their six away games W2 D2 L2 this term and have conceded just five goals on their travels - the second-fewest in the top flight.

Our Odisha FC vs Punjab FC Prediction

Odisha finally managed to secure their second league game of the season last time out, but given their lack of attacking output to date, it is going to take a few more wins before we can start backing them with any confidence. 

Punjab are having a solid campaign, and their biggest strength has been solid defence. We fancy the visitors to prioritise another clean sheet here, which sees us leaning toward a low-scoring outcome. Our Odisha FC vs Punjab FC prediction is less than 2.5 goals.
