Currently, they are four points behind the sixth-placed team but have a game in hand, making the battle for a playoff spot highly competitive. Odisha boast the second-best attack in the league with 37 goals, but their defensive struggles have kept them outside the playoff zone, as they also have one of the league’s weakest defenses.
Punjab trail Odisha by just two points, sitting on 23 points after 18 matches. They also have a game in hand over their opponents and two games in hand compared to the sixth-placed team. However, Punjab's recent form has been poor, with only one win in their last nine matches, along with two draws.
