The Goa outfit have two matches in hand over the teams in the top four and Kerala Blasters FC, who are fifth in the points table.
"We will be depending on ourselves. Rather than pressure, we should look at it with excitement because I think we can achieve something special this year and we are four wins away from that. The most important thing is to be loyal to ourselves and focus on recovering the confidence of the players," said Goa head coach Sergio Lobera.
"We have already shown what a good team we are and we have to do the same in this final phase. For me every game is different and what has happened in the past, we cannot compare with now.
"If we have to think about that game, it didn't reflect what happened on the pitch - they had a man sent off and then the scoreline became very extensive. Till the red card, the match was very balanced. Delhi deserve more points than they have," he added, referring to Goa's 5-1 win in the first fixture between the two sides.
However, bottom-placed Delhi can aim for the eighth place with a victory.
"We have always played well -- nothing is different for my team -- we play and we lose. But in the last two games we played well and won. That gives us confidence to win in the next four games. For us, I have told the players that every game is a final for us now because we want to finish by winning all the remaining games," Delhi head coach Miguel Angel Portugal said.
"I know it's an important match for FC Goa -- but for us, I just want to win the game and make everyone happy," he added.
Meanwhile, former FC Goa player Romeo Fernandes could feature in the match after being slowly blooded into the line-up.
