Sporting Club Delhi face a second stern test on the spin when they host Mohun Bagan Super Giant in an ISL-13 clash at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in New Delhi on Friday.
Tomasz Tchórz’s young squad will have their task cut out against a Bagan side that is still smarting from a late defeat of their own at the hands of NorthEast United FC in Guwahati on October 12.
Bagan will be without midfielder Deepak Tangri who is serving a suspension.
Bagan boss Panagiotis Dilmperis has kept things quiet since his side’s loss to the Highlanders on Monday night, with the green and maroon brigade choosing not to hold a pre-match news conference.
The first five matches of the league recorded 65 million YouTube views and 52 million viewers, according to an estimate.
The NorthEast United versus Bagan match was the most-viewed fixture in the English feed, recording 17 million views.
