Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Hyderabad in 4th and Chennaiyin in 6th place.
- Hyderabad has the most scored goals in the second half (14) in Indian Super League
- Chennaiyin has the fewest scored goals (11) in Indian Super League
There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Indian Super League match only three days ago. This match was also played here at Tilak Maidan Stadium. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Chennaiyin have had more rest.
Hyderabad form and stats
Hyderabad's struggle is real here at Tilak Maidan Stadium with only 6 points collected from 6 Indian Super League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-3-2. The trend of drawing games is also valid regardless of arena as Hyderabad has four draws from their last four matches. Two draws in a row at home now for Hyderabad.
The spoils were shared in Hyderabad's previous game, also at home. Visiting Bengaluru (placed 7th) travelled back with a draw after a 2-2 scoreline. Preceding that game was the away draw at Jamshedpur that finished 0-0.
Late drama in the game against Bengaluru as Hyderabad were trailing by a goal near the finishing line until Fran Sandaza popped out and made it level in the 90th minute. Fran Sandaza was able to secure the draw 2-2 in the game against Bengaluru after coming on as a substitute and scoring the final goal. In the starting lineup today?
Hyderabad are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 6 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Hyderabad defense is not exactly impregnable. 10 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
