Jose Molina returned to the ISL lining his side up in an apparent 3-4-3 set-up. Kaith in goal, Dippendu Biswas, Alberto Rodriguez and Subhashish Bose stood as the center backs.

Greg Stewart, Dimi Petratos and Jason Cummings played up-front in a tight knit, rather central offensive triad. Kratky meanwhile played a typical 4-3-3 with Tiri and Mehtab being flanked by Sahil Panwar and Valpuia in defence, Yoel van Nieff, Jon Toral and Jayesh Rane in midfield behind a rapid wing duo of Bipin and Changgte, spearheaded by new …
