Injury and Team News: FC Goa vs Jamshedpur FC
FC Goa
There’s some uncertainty about whether Sandesh Jhingan and Iker Guarrotxena will be able to play in FC Goa’s season opener due to injuries. Despite these concerns, it seems that the Gaurs don’t have any other major injury problems, which should be a relief for their coach, Carlos Pena.
Jamshedpur FC
On the other hand, Jamshedpur FC will be missing Pronay Halder for their opening match. However, coach Khalid Jamil will have the benefit of choosing from a fully fit squad otherwise. This gives him the flexibility to pick his strongest lineup for the game.

Key Players to Watch: FC Goa vs Jamshedpur FC
Armando Sadiku (FC Goa)
Switching clubs can often bring out the best in players, and this could be true for Armando Sadiku. The 33-year-old Albanian striker, who started his career with Turbina Cerrik, had a mixed season with Mohun Bagan in 2023-24. While he scored eight crucial goals in 22 matches, his inconsistent performances sometimes left fans frustrated.
Now with FC Goa, Sadiku has the chance to rejuvenate his career. FC Goa has a tradition of great strikers like Ferran Corominas, Manuel Lanzarote, and Noah Sadaoui. With this rich history, Sadiku will be motivated to make a significant impact and ensure that FC Goa’s attack remains strong as they face Jamshedpur FC.
Javier Hernandez (Jamshedpur FC)
Javier Hernandez could become a key player for Jamshedpur FC this season. The 35-year-old Spanish attacking midfielder from Salamanca has a wealth of experience, having played for clubs like Real Madrid’s second team, Salamanca, ATK Mohun Bagan, Odisha FC, and Bengaluru FC.
Jamshedpur FC has previously benefited from standout midfielders such as Greg Stewart and Wellington Priori, and Hernandez has the potential to join their ranks. With his excellent vision and playmaking skills, he could be the crucial addition that Khalid Jamil needs to strengthen his tactical plans. Hernandez might just turn out to be one of the most impactful signings for the Men of Steel this season.
