Out of three matches, Mumbai have won one, drawn one and lost one. The Gaurs have registered a victory, coupled with two draws.
During the pre-match press conference, Jorge Costa said that his side will need to avoid mistakes. "I spoke to the players after the defeat against Odisha FC. We've to fix our mistakes and we've to be focused to avoid these mistakes. In football, if you're overconfident then it's a problem. I'm not expecting an easy game. But, I'm sure FC Goa also aren't expecting an easy game. We respect them and they respect us," he said.
Lobera revealed that his side are ready to face Mumbai and are not overconfident. "I would prefer that my players remember the semi-final (5-1 win over Mumbai). I think every match is different. I think it is going to be a difficult match because we are going to play against a very good team and the past, I think, is not important for us," he said.
