ISL 2020-21: Lacklustre midfield a concern for Antonio Habas as ATK Mohun Bagan face the FC Goa challenge

Antonio Habas's men started their Indian Super League (ISL) campaign on a high by winning three successive games, including the derby against East Bengal. But there has been a slump recently as they have picked up just one point from their previous two fixtures.

While defending set-pieces has been a concern (all three goals in the last two games have been conceded from dead ball situations), the team's anaemic midfield should be a cause of bigger worry for the Spanish coach.

Habas' teams are not known to play possessional football. They are happy to absorb pressure and hit on the counter.
