Odisha FC host Kerala Blasters as the two sides resume their Indian Super League campaign at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar on Friday (February 2). The match holds significant importance in the ongoing season as both sides have the chance to go top of the ISL 2023-24 points table after FC Goa (27 points) toppled KBFC with a 2-0 win over Hyderabad FC last night.

Numerous stories have emerged from the current ISL season, but one of the most noteworthy is Sergio Lobera's return to lead the Kalinga Warriors. The Spaniard didn't hesitate to take on a whole new task at a team that appeared to have been perpetually trapped in the middle of the table for the past several seasons, following successful periods at FC Goa and Mumbai City FC.

In addition to instilling in the team a winning mindset, Lobera fueled their success on the continent and helped them get to the AFC Cup knockout stages. As of right now, the team is only two points behind Kerala Blasters FC, who are currently atop the standings. Odisha FC can overtake the Ivan Vukomanovic-coached team in the standings with a win in this match, while the Kochi-based team can gain ground on one of their closest rivals with a win.

On the other side, Kerala Blasters FC enjoy the unbeatable advantage of starting the campaign at the top of the standings. Driven by agile attackers and a resilient defense, they frequently turned in standout performances thanks to the encouragement they receive at home. But this will present a unique challenge. Odisha FC may have had an erratic start to the season, but as the year has gone on, their confidence has only risen.

It won't be easy to defeat them at home, and Kerala Blasters FC can't afford to make mistakes now that Lobera's team and FC Goa are circling first position. Despite all of the positive work that has been done thus far, Lobera was unable to win his first trophy with Odisha FC as they lost the Kalinga Super Cup final at home against East Bengal FC. He was keen to atone for that by finishing strongly in the points column here, and the road to that goal begins with facing one of the league's most influential clubs.
