SC East Bengal will take on Chennaiyin FC in the 79th match of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2021-22 on Wednesday, 2nd February 2022 at the Tilak Maidan Stadium.
Currently placed at the bottom of the table with nine points, SC East Bengal are almost out of contention for a top-four spot. They have managed to win just a solitary game this season, losing seven and drawing six. The Red and Gold Brigade come into this match on the back of a 3-1 defeat against ATK Mohun Bagan in their last fixture.
Chennaiyin FC, too, have been pretty inconsistent this season. They haven't been able to keep their winning momentum going and find themselves in eighth spot on the ISL points table.
The former champions have collected 18 points so far with five wins, as many losses, and three draws. Having suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat in their most recent game against Bengaluru FC, the Marina Machans will be desperate to get back to winning ways.
When the two ISL teams last met in the reverse fixture earlier this season, the game finished in a goalless draw.
