MCFC Vs FCG Dream11 Goal-Keeper
While Mumbai City are not going to be keeping a cleansheet in this fixture, we are still moving in with their goal-keeper for the encounter. In Arminder Singh, the side has an astute shot stopper, a name more than capable of stringing together his way a slew of saves given the worldclass skill set he is bestowed with.
MCFC Vs FCG Dream11 Defenders
Both the sides have been prone to conceding atleast once infront of vicious attacking units to see us limit ourselves to just the requisite three picks in our backline for the contest. Given the ramifications for either side from the fixture, we envision both scoring atleast the one goal apiece, a narrative which saw us play it safe in this ambit.
We’ll be moving in with a duo from Goa with this partnership always willing to canter down the park and assist the side in its attacking sojourns. Both Carlos Pena and Seriton Fernandes will be indulged in by us for this fixture while from the other side of the slot we are moving in for Mato Grgic.
MCFC Vs FCG Dream11 Midfielders
A massive reason for Goa’s attack being so revered and feared in the league has been down to resplendent Hugo Boumous. He has come up with an incredible 8 goals all season, numbers which allude to his calibre as a player to make him an instant pick for us.
Both Mandar Rao Dessai and Brandon Fernandes will be brought in as well by us with Mumbai City having failed to have instilled in place cleansheets, something which will see both these players pull off intricate performances today. Elsewhere, we have limited ourselves to the singular pick from Mumbai City with Rowllin Borges being brought in by us.
MCFC Vs FCG Dream11 Strikers
Goa’s leading scorer with a momentous 11 goals this season, their striker Ferran Corominas was always going to be an instant pick for us for today’s tie. Elsewhere with the two goals apiece for themselves this season, we are moving n for the worldclass duo of Diego Carlos and Mohamed Larbi from the visiting side.
