The I-League league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Chennai City and Sudeva are placed 7th and 8th respectively.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Chennai City form and stats
Only two I-League home games for Chennai City so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat.
Chennai's last game was hosting Arrows (placed 11th) and winning 1-0. Prior to that, an away loss at TRAU.
Early season league goal statistics from Chennai City's 2 home games: 1 goal, 2 conceded.
Sudeva form and stats
The I-League season is young and Sudeva have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far.
Sudeva aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 208 league minutes without a goal. S. Kharpan was the last player to find the net.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Minerva Punjab (placed 9th) in their previous outing. The I-League match ended in a draw 0-0. A 0-2 defeat away at Churchill Brothers before that.
Sudeva are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 3 away games. As opposed to that, Sudeva have seen the ball go into their own net 3 times on the road.
