The report on all matches from matchweek 17 is here.
Here are the details for matchweek 18 of ISL 2024-25 with the latest match report coming first:
Bengaluru FC 2-3 Odisha FC
Odisha FC boosted their chances of making it to the ISL playoffs, and dented Bengaluru FC again, with a 3-2 victory at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium on Wednesday. The result looked unlikely when Bengaluru went 2-0 up inside the first 13 minutes with goals from Edgar Mendez and Sunil Chhetri, but the game turned in the 26th minute when Bengaluru centre-back Aleksandar Jovanovic was shown a red card for a last-man tackle on Diego Mauricio, who scored the resulting penalty.
Mauricio scored from the spot again after Roshan Singh handled a cross from Rahul KP, and then Odisha took the lead early in the second half when Jerry Mawia turned in a cross from Hugo Boumous to complete the comeback. They saw off the rest of the game without too many concerns, as Bengaluru remained winless in 2025, losing three and drawing one of their four games in the calendar year so far.
Chennaiyin 0-0 Mohun Bagan
Mohun Bagan Super Giant were held to a 0-0 draw by Chennaiyin FC after an insipid performance from the league leaders in a largely uneventful game, which saw only three shots on target by both teams combined.
In fact, it was Chennaiyin who came closest to breaking the deadlock when Wilmar Jordan Gil somehow found space for himself in the box and hit the woodwork. Late in the second half, Chennaiyin skipper Ryan Edwards could, and really should, have won them the game after he was afforded a free header from point-blank range off a pinpoint Connor Shields cross, but he put his effort wide.
Bagan have extended their lead at the top of the table to seven points, having played a game or two more than the teams immediately below them. Chennaiyin are 10th, six points behind sixth-placed Mumbai City FC, who have played a game less than them.
