Chennai City hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 9 points and a 9th position in the I-League table. Visiting Aizawl holds 7th place with 15 pts.
- Chennai City have the fewest scored goals (2) at home in I-League
- Aizawl have the fewest conceded goals in the second half (4) in I-League
The visiting Aizawl played their last game only four days ago, a I-League match.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Aizawl have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 6-13-15 (win-draw-loss) from 34 matches.
It's quite the trip for Aizawl when visiting Chennai as the cities are 3100 kilometers apart.
Chennai City form and stats
Chennai City, who have the fewest scored goals (2) at home in I-League, have collected 3 points from their I-League home games so far after 1-0-4. The season ticket holders are starting to dread their visits here at Kalyani Stadium, with the home team losing four in a row. They have not avoided a defeat here since the Arrows game.
Happy days for Chennai in their previous game, a I-League match away at Arrows that ended with a 5-0 victory. Preceding that match was the home game against Sudeva that was lost 1-2.
As indicated by the result mentioned above, Chennai played a great game against Arrows and beat them comfortably. Expectations are high for this one.
The lack of attacking qualities in Chennai means that they have only scored 2 goals in 5 league home games, less than half a goal per match. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for Chennai with 11 goals conceded in these matches.

2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. That’s the product of Aizawl playing as the away team in the I-League this season. Aizawl love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.
Prior to that result Aizawl won their away game at NEROCA. The scoreline was 1-0.
