Indian Super League side Hyderabad FC will be looking to solidify their place at the top of the table when they take on I-League outfit Neroca FC in the ongoing Durand Cup 2022. The Group C fixture is scheduled to take place at the Khuman Lampak Stadium in Imphal on Tuesday, August 30.

Hyderabad FC have won both their fixtures so far, beating TRAU 2-0 before going past two-time ISL winners Chennaiyin FC 3-1 courtesy of a brace from Bartholomew Ogbeche and a goal from the penalty spot from Joao Victor.
