After the first round it's Chippa United - TS Galaxy 1-3 in points. Who will achieve victory in this second Premier League game of the season?

TS Galaxy have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1200 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It's no vacation for neither Chippa United nor TS Galaxy as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
