ATK Vs BFC Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Waning Bengaluru’s third spot in peril with Chennaiyin persistently snapping at their heels.
Only till a week back, it looked as if third spot in the ongoing edition of the Indian Super League was assured for Bengaluru. However, things no longer look quite so rosy for the outfit with the picking up just the lone point from its last two outings, results which have seen Chennaiyin quietly creep up behind them.
Now only a point behind Bengaluru in fourth place, Chennaiyin are looking to leap onto the slightest of slip ups from Bengaluru at the moment. The subsequent latest developments mean Bengaluru can’t spare any expense when they step out in the middle for today’s clash with anything less than three points leaving them in perpetual fear of stumbling into fourth position.
What will inculcate confidence in them ahead of this Saturday’s encounter is the fact that they have lost just once in their home stadium this season. Also, with ATK routed 3-1 by Chennaiyin the last time around, Bengaluru will be well aware that pulling off the three points from this encounter can end up being a relatively easy position for them.
ATK Vs BFC Probable Winner
Bengaluru surprisingly ended up shipping two goals the last time around but that does little to take away from the fact that they are still the most exceptional defence in the league. And its stern defence which should see them come out of this encounter unblemished with us envisioning this fixture curtailing in a draw.

Bygone Encounter

ATK Vs BFC Dream11 Goal-Keeper
Gurpreet Singh-Sandhu will be our pick in the goal-keeping slot for this tie. The Bengaluru goal-keeper has been pivotal to the side’s chances of pulling off a cleansheet with his imperious displays helping cut short opposition’s from scoring past him.
Defenders
With Serran out for Bengaluru for today’s encounter, the onus will grow on Juanan to take charge of his side’s defence on the day. And the player is more than capable of leading his backline given his acumen and his increased involvement in the tie makes him sublime value on the day.
Where Bengaluru have made for a stern defensive unit, the side have been unable to address their attacking travails. It’s been a flummoxed showing from them in that department with the side mustering up a mere 20 goals, a plight which has seen them regress in form off late.
What their plight will do is allow the opposition the chance to implement a cleansheet in this tie, a narrative which sees us rope in the vibrant partnership of P Das and P Kotal for the day’s affair.
Midfielders
Having helped himself to two goals this season, Erik Paartalu becomes the first player to find a place in our Dream 11 side from Bengaluru for this clash. We have the succulent Dimas Delgado come in as well from the unit while from the opposition we are getting in Edu Garcia who has piled on the four goals this season alongside Jayesh Rane.
Strikers
At a time when Hernandez is out of action for ATK, David Williams should end up getting a chance for the side on the day. He has scored 5 times this season, a figure which sees us make him our first pick in this facet of our contingent.
Roy comes in as well from the team with the player having scored 14 goals this season while from the other side we are moving in for Sunil Chhetri owing to the 9 goals he has in this edition of the league.
Captain And Vice-Captain
We have decided to move in with Williams as our side’s captain with the player always delivering when a part of his team’s playing 11 while Paartalu is our vice-captain.
Dream 11 Team
Gurpreet, Juanan, P Das, P Kotal, Rane, Delgado, Garcia, Paartalu, Sunil, David, Roy
