AFC Cup 2017: Maziya S&RC vs Bengaluru FC Preview - Blues seek Maldivian fountain of form for AFC Cup fortune

The Bengaluru-based 2013 I-League champions look to attain top spot in the AFC Cup Group E, as Maldivian Maziya seek a record of their own...

Bengaluru FC will make the short trip to the Maldives to face Maziya Sports and Recreation (S & R) Club on Tuesday, 4th April, in an Asian Football Confederation's (AFC) Cup Group E fixture that has had Albert Roca's full attention.

The Maldives based side currently lead the group standings, whereas Bengaluru - having beaten arch-rivals Mohun Bagan on match day one - sit second.

In all honesty, the tie presents a cornucopia of positivity and points for the beleaguered champions of India, which they must grasp.
