Top Fantasy Picks

- Lalthathanga Khawlhring (Odisha FC, midfielder): Captain and set piece taker. His corner set up the equaliser against Punjab.
- Thoiba Singh (Odisha FC, defender): Scored the equaliser with a header from a corner. Goal threat at set pieces plus clean sheet chances.
- Albino Gomes (Inter Kashi, goalkeeper): Made saves against Kerala, including from Freddy Lallawmawma. Odisha should have more of the ball, so he can collect save points.
- Manvir Singh (Inter Kashi, forward): Kashi’s most dangerous player against Kerala. He tested the keeper in the 35th and 61st minutes.
- Giorgi Aburjania (Odisha FC, midfielder): Created chances against Punjab, including one for Rahim Ali.
