MCFC come into this game on back of two draws, against NorthEast United and ATK, and Costa blamed individual mistakes for that.


"It's always a problem if you lose points due to individual mistakes but the positive thing we must take from the last two games is that we are playing as a team and have shown fighting spirit. But again, everything is undone by small mistakes which are costing us important points," added Costa, 48, whose team recently got a major boost after English Premier League champions Manchester City's parent company City Football Group (CFG) acquired a 65 per cent stake in the Mumbai club.

Meanwhile, Blasters too are languishing in eighth spot in the 10-team table, having just one point from six matches.

Manager Eelco Schattorie, 47, blamed the slump in form to injuries plaguing his side. "We have played six games, and I've had to change the line-up for every game due to injuries," the Dutchman said.
