FC Goa will be looking to improve on their semi-final performance from last season as they aim to win their first ISL crown in this campaign. The club had a great campaign last time out, topping the league stage before bowing out of the competition by losing to Chennaiyin FC. FC Goa also won their first-ever ISL League Winners Shield last year, becoming the first team to qualify for the AFC Champions League group stage. Ahead of the upcoming ISL fixtures, here is FC Goa's schedule for the new season, the FC Goa fixtures list and team news for the club for 2020-21.

FC Goa team news
Despite being one of the most consistent teams in recent years, the FC Goa squad will begin their ISL 2020-21 campaign under a new head coach in Juan Ferrando. The Spanish connection within the squad will surely help the new coach get his ideas across, with the team having players like Igor Angulo, Jorge Ortiz, Alberto Noguera and Ivan Gonzalez in their ranks. All eyes will be on new signing Angulo, with the 36-year-old likely to spearhead the side’s attack this season.
For the beautiful game

The FC Goa squad has lost several of its key men due to transfers. Ferran Corominas will surely be missed, with the Spaniard having scored 14 goals last season. The departure of another proven goalscorer in Hugo Boumous will make it interesting to see how the FC Goa team copes up this season. Under the leadership of Edu Bedia, the team will be looking to have a solid ISL 2020-21 campaign.
Here's the complete FC Goa squad for the 2020-21 ISL season
- Goalkeepers: Mohammad Nawaz, Naveen Kumar, Dylan D'Silva, Shubham Dhas
- Defenders: Ivan Gonzalez, James Donachie, Seriton Fernandes, Aibanbha Dohling, Leander D'Cunha, Mohamed Ali, Sanson Pereira, Sarineo Fernandes, Saviour Gama
- Midfielders: Edu Bedia, Flan Gomes, Jorge Ortiz, Brandon Fernandes, Alberto Noguera, Lenny Rodrigues, Redeem Tlang, Seiminlen Doungel, Nestor Dias, Phrangki Buam, Princeton Rebello, Alexander Jesuraj, Makan Chothe
- Forwards: Igor Angulo, Ishan Pandita, Aaren D'Silva, Devendra Murgaonkar
