Kerala Blasters are still searching for a first win of the 2025-26 Indian Super League (ISL) season, as they host Punjab in a matchday six fixture. This match on Saturday at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Ernakulam between the 12th-placed Tuskers and the eighth-placed Shers comes with our prediction of less than 2.5 goals.
Ahead of this round, Kerala have one point from their five games (D1, L4) and are only marginally above the basement club Mohammedan. Punjab’s five points (W1, D2, L1) put them three points behind fifth place.
Kerala drew 1-1 away at East Bengal last weekend for their first points of the campaign. That was also just their second goal of the campaign, keeping them bottom of the scoring charts.
Four defeats out of the first matchdays, three coming without scoring, is a challenge that the Tuskers need to address. Even at home, Kerala lost four of their last five competitive matches, including three in a row, so the challenge to improve is immense.
Punjab are also coming off a 1-1 draw against Goa on Monday at home. That kept them unbeaten in three consecutive league games (W1, D2), helping them bounce back from a 1-0 defeat to Jamshedpur on matchday one.
Their lone win this season came on the road against Bengaluru, as the Shers look to kick off.

Our Kerala Blasters vs Punjab FC Prediction
Kerala Blasters are yet to kick off as they start this round among the bottom three ISL teams. They are also one of the four teams yet to win a match, so there’s an immediate need to find ways of improving the results. The key could lie in improving their final third output, as no team have scored fewer goals per game than the Blasters. Punjab are only slightly better, averaging 1.0 goal per match.
These low numbers point to a tight game with very few goals, so our Kerala Blasters vs Punjab FC prediction is less than 2.5 goals.
