1 match into Round 8 of the 2017-18 ISL season and we already have a new table topper with the previously top teams dropping down the list.

FC Goa was the talk of the month with their string of victories coming off the back off a plethora of goals. 14 goals over 3 matches. That, unfortunately, was brought to a stop with a 0-2 loss to FC Pune City.

Kerala Blasters have not been able to regain their dominant form over the last 2 seasons with them falling to Bengaluru FC 3-1 in their last match.

Chennaiyin FC and FC Pune City have managed to string together positive results to now lead the table with Chennaiyin FC holding a slender 1 point lead over both FC Pune City and Bengaluru FC at 15 points.

The new entrants Jamshedpur FC haven't done too badly too with them holding the mid-table position along with FC Goa and Mumbai City FC solidly while the bottom of the table has been comprised of ATK, Kerala Blasters, NorthEast United and Delhi Dynamos.

Of course, everyone knows that all it takes is for a team to string together a couple of draws and victories and the table would shift again. Bengaluru FC looked to be the team to beat with an efficient team management system working for them. How that has changed.

One can only wait and watch and see how this progresses. For now, the current table standings below.
