It's finally time for the Indian Super League season opener for these squads, whom look forward to battling for points again. Will Odisha FC or Chennaiyin get that very important first victory?

Chennaiyin have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

These are active days for the hometeam, as they had a match only four days ago in the AFC Cup. This match was also played here at Kalinga Stadium. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Chennaiyin have had more rest.
