Another massive factor could be home team Bengaluru FC's performance in its debut ISL season, which saw it top the table at the end of the league stages and qualify for the semis.

Bengaluru was held to a goalless draw by FC Pune City in the first leg semifinal clash on Wednesday and will play its second leg at home on Sunday.
