After a goalless draw against Bengaluru FC, Jamshedpur FC will be hoping to return to winning ways and maintain their unbeaten start to the sixth season of the Indian Super League (ISL).
Ahead of their first away game, head coach Antonio Iriondo said, “We don’t think too much of the past. Every match is different, a lot of things change from match to match. We try to live in the present and don’t think about other games.” He stated, “Right now we need to focus on every match as I don’t like to make comparisons on different leagues.”

The Men of Steel is set to face the two-time champions ATK as both teams aim for the top spot in the league table.
“We know we’re playing against a great team. They're a very serious team and when I say serious, it’s like they know the way they want to win. They have a lot of quality in their team. I know their coach and it’s a team that gets into crazy matches.
“They also have some great players which add to their quality. But we’re trying to remove the fear in our game and I try to explain that to my players. I try to make sure my players aren’t fearful and express themselves during games.
“I have a plan but I’m not sure if it’s going to work. The plan is to have possession of the ball for 90 minutes so that they can’t touch it. But I don’t think that will work. “
