Kerala Blasters Schedule for ISL 2021–22: Check Out Timetable With Timings & Venue Details of Ivan Vukomanović’s Side
After a 10th place finish last season, Kerala Blasters would aim at a better performance this time around. They face three-time champions ATK Mohun Bagan in their first fixture on November 19.
It has been eight seasons in the Indian Super League and despite showing loads of promise, Kerala Blasters are yet to have their hands on the silverware. This time though, they are aiming to turn that aspiration into a reality with new head coach Ivan Vukomanovic at the helm. Kerala had a very poor outing in ISL 2020-21, finishing 10th with 17 points on the board in 20 games. They had a similar trajectory in the competition last year like SC East Bengal but they were below the Kolkata side due to a poor goal difference. All they can think of now is to put the disappointment of last year aside and focus full throttle to mount a title challenge this season. It definitely would not be easy but it is not impossible.

Kerala Blasters would rely a lot on the services of young and rising Indian midfield star Sahal Abdul Samad. They have the squad to finish in the top four but it would be interesting to see where they end up after the first round of fixtures.

Kerala Blasters would have a big start to the season when they face last year's finalists ATK Mohun Bagan. Next, they take on NorthEast United in their second fixture of the month. The biggest positive for them is that they would have some good gaps between their matches which would help them recuperate and build on as the season progresses.
