Maziya Sports and Recreation face a major blow as they prepare for a mouthwatering second leg in Bengaluru. Coach Marjan Sekulovski has to do with out his captain Asadullah Abdullah as it has emerged that Asadulla suffered an injury to his knee. 

Hassan Naaiz is also a doubt for Maziya while attacking mid Ibrahim Waheed Hassan is also not match fit having recently returned from injury. Marjan Sekulovski's attacking options are stretched to the limits. 

Maziya go into the second leg on 26th with a slight advantage thanks to a 2-1 win at home after Ibrahim Mahudhee and Stewart Cornelius fired home the goals. 

Maziya captain Asadullah Abdullah is expected to travel with the squad to Bengaluru for further medical checkup. Sources close to the club suggest that Asadullah has injured his Knee ligament and would likely need a surgery to recover from the injury. 

Meanwhile for Bengaluru skipper Sunil Chetri is also out with injury. Sunil is unlikely to feature in Bengaluru's crucial second leg.
