Chennaiyin FC vs ATK Mohun Bagan Dream11 Fantasy Suggestions
This should be a close game between two teams because despite the difference in their respective position in the standings, Chennaiyin have proved to be a tough team to beat on their day. Having been in a position to take all three points against Hyderabad FC, Mohun Bagan won't take the hosts lightly.
Both my suggestions are fairly balanced with players from both teams in it. Julius Duker, Hugo Boumous, Dimitri Petratos, Petar Sliskovic and Aakash Sangwan are the five players I feel are must-haves for this game.
Petar Sliskovic, Dimitri Petratos and Hugo Boumous are the players I'd consider captaining this week.
