Our Prediction for FC Goa This Indian Super League Season 5

A crowd of football enthusiasts cheering at the Fatorda will be the best inspiration for the Goans to bring back the glory days. Manager Sergio Lobera has a comparatively young side with an average age 26. If their defensive problems are addressed, they have a real chance of clinching the title.
