Speaking ahead of the game, PFC Head Coach Staikos Vergetis said, "We will have to execute all our plans against a very strong team in Kerala Blasters. We have improved a lot as a defensive unit but we need to fine-tune our offensive game. It is the first season for most of our players and as youngsters we make sure that they are concentrated in the match. We lost points because of some individual errors which were caused because of lack of experience".
