Salgaocar FC will be aiming to move up the table when they lock horns with DSK Shivajians in the I-League at the Tilak Maidan Stadium here tomorrow.

Salgaocar are currently placed in the sixth position in the nine-team league, with 12 points from 11 games. After languishing in the relegation zone for the majority of their campaign, Salgaocar FC have the opportunity to find themselves in the fourth position, if they pick up all three points versus DSK.

The Goans had a dismal start to the season under former coach Malky Thomson which saw them lose their opening four matches. Thomson was later replaced by former Mohun Bagan coach Santosh Kashyap.
 

Salgaocar go into the match on the back of a 1-0 win against Shillong Lajong courtesy of a Gilbert Oliviera long- ranger.

"We are injury free except Reagen who has some recovery to be done. Augustin has played two intensity games with the national side and I'll have to assess him." Kashyap said ahead of the game.

He added, "The game is very important for us considering how close teams are in the table. We are confident to get three points.
