Hyderabad FC and Delhi FC history

The Nizams finished second in the Indian Super League last season, just four points behind Mumbai City FC. They suffered a defeat in the semi-finals against the eventual champions, Mohun Bagan Super Giant.

Since then, the club has undergone significant changes, with head coach Manolo Marquez departing to join FC Goa, and key players such as Akash Mishra, Borja Herrera, Odei Onanindia, and Javier Siverio moving to rival ISL clubs.

In an effort to rebuild the team, Hyderabad appointed Conor Nestor as their new head coach. Despite signing some experienced foreign players, there are still issues in the squad that need to be addressed.

Furthermore, their preparations for the Durand Cup have been hampered, as they have had just one week of training. As a result, the senior players may not be fully ready, and the head coach might consider fielding some of the younger talent.

Meanwhile, their opponents Delhi FC are on the back of a highly successful I-League 2 season, where they secured promotion after a remarkable campaign. Delhi advanced to the final round in a dominant fashion, before finishing first in that round, which resulted in their participation in the I-League for the upcoming season.

Former Indian forward Balwant Singh was their top scorer last season, netting seven goals in the I-League 2. Delhi boast a team of quality players and are capable of causing an upset against Hyderabad.
