ISL 2022-23: Odisha FC vs Chennaiyin FC head-to-head stats and numbers you need to know

Odisha FC will lock horns with Chennaiyin FC at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneshwar on November 23, Thursday. The Juggernauts are yet to drop points in their backyard, while the Marina Machans enter this fixture with two away victories from two games.

The hosts managed to turn games around in the second half after failing to start the game on a high note, with Nandakumar's first-half strike in a 1-0 victory over Bengaluru FC being the exception. They turned the scoreline around against Kerala Blasters by scoring two second-half goals during their opening game, while they turned the game upside down by scoring four goals after conceding two first-half goals in their previous game against East Bengal.

Chennaiyin FC, on the other hand, bounced back with a 3-1 victory against Jamshedpur FC after suffering a humiliating 6-2 at the hands of Mumbai City FC. Thomas Brdaric's side have been promising, albeit with a touch of inconsistency. They are undefeated on the road, having defeated Mohun Bagan 1-2 and East Bengal 0-1. Marina Machans will be hoping to have Anirudh Thapa and Jiteshwor Singh in midfield after the duo missed the previous game due to injuries on Saturday.

The hosts might have an edge in this encounter, but Chennaiyin FC have produced spirited displays since Thomas Brdaric took over the club and have the ability to beat top sides on their day.

We shall look at a few interesting numbers before the sides go head-to-head.
