Competition: India Indian Super League
Date: Sun 29.December
Match begins: 14:00 (UTC)
Venue: Mumbai Football Arena (18000 seats)

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Mumbai City are in the 5th position while the guests worry at 10th.

Hyderabad could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Indian Super League game only zero sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Mumbai City. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

Hyderabad, who have the most conceded goals (19) in Indian Super League, are still without points from their Indian Super League away games. 4 games, 4 defeats.
