kerala blasters: Kerala Blasters reach crucial stage; The next two weeks are crucial in determining playoff chances

The Kerala Blasters are in the midst of their eighth season in the ongoing Indian Super League. After playing nine matches this season, Kerala’s own yellow team is fifth in the league table with 14 points. Unlike previous years, there has been a big change in the style of play of the team and the attitude of the players on the field. This is what changed the team drastically.

As the eighth season of the Indian Super League nears its halfway stage, no team has confirmed the play-off chances. But the next two weeks will be crucial for the Kerala Blasters’ play-off chances. The series that the team will have to play these days will be crucial for their future in this season as well.

Trial period

The Kerala Blasters will have to play 4 matches in the next 12 days from tomorrow. That means an average of one match every three days. The team’s opponents in this match are the four giants of the tournament. The Blasters will take on Hyderabad FC in the ninth match on November 12 against Odisha FC. Mumbai City FC and ATK Mohun Bagan will play against the team in the matches to be played on the 16th and 20th. In fact, the Blasters’ playoff chances this season will be determined by the fact that they have to play without much rest against these four best teams.

Subsequent matches pose a serious challenge to the fitness of the players

Having to play four major matches in 12 days is the toughest thing for any footballer‌. It can also seriously affect the fitness of the players. Playing without rest also increases the risk of injury. The team will have to face very strong opponents in these matches and will try to field their best team in every game. This is actually a very risky thing to do. How coach Ivan Vukomanovic manages to control the players’ load for the next two weeks will be crucial for the team’s future.

The Blasters have faced a similar stage before

At the same time, the Kerala Blasters have had to play consecutive matches like this before this season. It was December. The Horns had to play three games in eight days that day. At that time, Kerala’s rivals were Mumbai City FC, Chennai FC and Jamshedpur FC. In two of these matches, the Yellows won by three unanswered goals and were content with a draw in one. Fans are now hoping that the Blasters, who won the first test match of the season with consecutive matches, will face the second test stage in a way that will satisfy the fans.
