Surjay Pariyar, after being mediocre against Sporting on Thursday, might just get overlook for Shambu Mistry, who is eager to show his class under the bar.

In the backline, coach Santosh Kashyap will have Poibiang Pohshna, Lamine Tamba, Munmun Lugun, Bhola Prasad, Thomas Saikhom, Pynshongdor Shadap, Pratik Chowdhary and Ambilstar Sunn to choose his best four.

With the Pune FC attack comprising the likes of Calum Angus, the blues' defence will have to be at the top of their toes on Sunday.

It will be interesting to see what combination of defenders Kashyap uses against Pune FC, and also whether he goes with two or three centre-backs.

Abocha Singh, Laldingngheta, Ho jun Shin and David Nghaite will have huge roles to play if they feature on Sunday, and Santosh Kashyap will hope his boys control the proceedings from the midfield against the hosts.

With Pune FC boasting of a very good defence, Rangdajied's attack will have to be at its very best to stand any chance of getting the club a good result from the game.

Edmar Figueira, Sandesh Gadkari, Lalnunpuia and Nagen Tamang will all hope to be in Kashyap's starting XI, and will have the biggest work to do on Sunday, i.e.scoring a few goals.

Despite the loss against Sporting Clube on 24th, Rangdajied have many positives to take to Pune.

The blues have performed well in patches, and with many new players in the squad, the team is slowly starting to gel with each other.

Coach Kashyap will be hoping his boys finally get that elusive win, which might work wonders, in terms of the players' confidence.

After two consecutive losses, the Rangdajied United squad isn't in the highest of spirits.

However, great teams are those who manage to stand up after every fall.

The blues will have a great chance to redeem themselves against Pune FC, and the Chosen Ones will try to grab this opportunity to finally get their season going.

Whether The Blues can bounce back and get a positive result will be interesting to see.

The odds maybe stacked against Rangdajied United Football Club, but Kashyap's knights aren't about to go down without a fight.
