Odisha vs Jamshedpur prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - September 28, 2024
In the third round of the Indian Super League, Odisha will face Jamshedpur on Saturday, September 28. The match is scheduled to begin at 13:30 Central European Time. This prediction is provided by Dailysports experts.
Odisha
After a decent performance last season, the club was hoping for a strong start to the new campaign. However, Odisha has had a shaky beginning this season.
In the first two rounds, the team lost at home to Chennaiyin and away to Punjab. Both defeats were by a minimal margin, and Odisha managed to score in each match. On the other hand, conceding five goals highlights the defensive issues.
Jamshedpur
Jamshedpur has always been known for its solid defense, but last year the team managed to finish ahead of only modest Hyderabad in the table.
In the first round of the new season, Jamshedpur secured a victory over Goa, but their attacking organization raised questions. In the most recent match, they caused a major upset by taking three points at home against the powerful Mumbai City.
Match Facts
- Odisha has lost its last four official matches.

Head-to-Head
Odisha has won the last two head-to-head matches, and the teams have not drawn since 2020.

Despite the teams’ contrasting starts to the new season, bookmakers favor the home team. However, I believe Jamshedpur is capable of extending their successful run, and I predict a victory for them with a +1 goal handicap.
