Chennaiyin FC will face an upbeat Kerala Blasters side in the Indian Super League (ISL) on Wednesday. The match will be held at the Tilak Maidan Stadium in Goa.
Chennaiyin FC have been one of the toughest ISL teams to beat in the ISL this season. With a solid defense, Bozidar Bandovic's men have only conceded four goals in six matches, the least by any ISL team so far this season. The Marina Machans are 4th in the ISL table with 11 points to their name.
Kerala Blasters FC, however, will be fancying their chances against their upcoming opponents. The Men In Yellow pulled off the biggest upset in the ISL this season when they handed a 3-0 drubbing to defending champions Mumbai City FC.
The Blasters outclassed the table-toppers in all departments and provided a reality-check to the Islanders. Thanks to that win, Kerala Blasters are now placed 6th in the table with a total of nine points.
A win for Chennaiyin FC will propel them to second place and just a point behind Mumbai City FC. If Kerala Blasters win, they will move up to third place in the ISL standings.
