TEAMS PREVIEW

Chennaiyin FC Preview

It’s been a season to forget for Owen Coyle and his boys, tallying just 24 points from 23 games.  Sitting 11th in the standings, their only hope is a 10th-place finish—if they can overcome Jamshedpur on Sunday. However, there are some hurdles that they need to cross if they are to finish the season on a high. 

Defensive frailties - Much of their failures have come from an erroneous defense that has conceded 37 goals this season. This was highlighted by Owen Coyle in his post match press conference post the NorthEast game. 

Chennaiyin's home form has been a major concern where they just won and lost 5 in 11 games. Their 10-point tally is the second-worst home record this season. Back in the Indian national squad, Irfan Yadwad will be eager to shine on Sunday. With 3 goals and 4 assists, the 23-year-old has been Chennaiyin FC’s standout Indian player this season. Chennaiyin FC will be without Laldinliana Renthlei, sidelined with a dislocated shoulder, while Ryan Edwards misses out due to suspension after his red card in the last game

Chennaiyin Probable XI -  Mohammed Nawaz (GK), Vignesh Dakshinamurthy, Elsinho, Pritam Kotal, Ankit Mukherjee, Lalrinliana Hnamte, Jitender Singh, Connor Shields, Kiyan Nassiri, Irfan Yadwad, Wilmar Jordan Gil

Jamshedpur FC Preview

Jamshedpur FC has made huge strides this season, climbing from 10th last year to the playoffs. However, with just one win in their last five games—against Mohammedan SC—coach Khalid Jamil will be wary as the playoffs approach. 

Nonetheless, a win on Sunday will return them to third place in the league rankings, and they would want to win their last league match as finishing in the top four guarantees them a home playoff tie.  It will be a significant advantage for a team that has won eight of its last eleven home games.

Jordan Murray, familiar with the Marina Arena from his Chennaiyin days, has been a key figure for Jamshedpur FC this season, scoring 6 goals and playing a vital role in their system. And he will have to lead the way in the absence of their top scorer Javi Hernandez.  The Red Miners will miss the services of Javi Hernandez, who is suspended after picking up his fourth yellow card of the season.

Jamshedpur FC Probable XI -  Albino Gomes (GK), Muhammed Uvais, Stephen Eze, Pratik Chaudhari, Nikhil Barla, Ritwik Das, Rei Tachikawa, Sourav Das, Imran Khan, Javier Siverio, Jordan Murray

Winning Prediction

The last clash between these two sides was a nightmare for the visitors, as the Marina Machans ran riot with a stunning 5-1 victory. What made it even more special? It was Jamshedpur’s first-ever home defeat. With that emphatic win in their memory and nothing to lose, Chennaiyin can play with freedom—and just might pull off another upset. Chennaiyin head into this clash as slight favorites, with odds of 2.30 on a popular site, while Jamshedpur sit at 2.70. A draw stands at 3.78.
