"We have to play for three points. We are facing an opposition who is very strong in attack. We have to be prepared for winning and not for a draw. This is the mentality of the players and the technical staff. We have to win the match and not think about a draw," he added.
Habas drew reference to the last game between the two, in which his side lost 0-1. He has urged his boys to use their experience and go all out against a relentless City, who would seemingly stop at nothing.
"The last match against Mumbai City could have been a draw because before they scored, we had a fantastic chance with Edu Bedia. But football is like this; there are no excuses. Now, this is a different match and the situation is different. We have to use our experience to win," he concluded.
