Aizawl FC vs Sreenidi Deccan: Preview, predicted lineups and more for the I-League 2023-24 clash

Modified Feb 19, 2024 13:15 IST

Aizawl FC host title challengers Sreenidi Deccan in a match in the I-League at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Aizawl, Mizoram on Monday. The visiting side will feel that they can upturn the hopes of the hosts in this game and pick up all three points on offer.

For Aizawl, this is an excellent opportunity to do the league double over Sreenidi, given that they had beaten them in the reverse fixture played earlier this season in the Deccan Arena in Hyderabad by a 2-1 scoreline.

The People's Club of Mizoram have won just one out of the last five matches that they have played. The visitors, on the other hand, have won three games in a row. Their main intentions will be to go to the top of the table and earn promotion into the Indian Super League next season.
