Hyderabad FC and Punjab FC, two teams hovering at the bottom of the ISL 2023-24 points table, will lock horns at the Gachibowli Stadium on Tuesday.

The Nizams are practically out of the playoff equations with just four points from their 16 outings. As has been documented previously, Hyderabad FC are facing a financial crunch and the majority of their key players have parted ways mid-season due to non-payment of salaries.

A victory has eluded them for the entire season and the road ahead isn't getting any easier for Thangboi Singto's cavalry. Against Bengaluru FC, in their previous outing, Hyderabad FC scored their first goal in five matches and yet slumped to a 2-1 defeat. While their all-Indian squad has shown plenty of resilience, the disparity in quality of personnel has hampered the Nizams' results over and over again.

Debutants Punjab FC have also had their struggles in the top tier, but they had a bright start after the resumption of the league with two straight victories against Bengaluru and Kerala Blasters.

But a resurging Jamshedpur FC, to the shock of many, handed out a 4-0 drubbing to Staikos Vergetis' men. After a lengthy break, the Shers will be licking their wounds and hoping to return to winning ways against the handicapped Hyderabad FC outfit.
