TEAMS PREVIEW

Chennaiyin FC Preview

Reasons to be cheerful

• Chennaiyin have produced some decent performances at home

• The club has lost only one match in the recent four games at home

Reasons to be fearful

• There have been four defeats in the last five matches

• Chennaiyin have not scored in four of the recent five games

Chennaiyin hit a new low after a 1-0 loss against East Bengal in the last match. This defeat keeps the team just a place above the bottom even if they have a sizable lead over Hyderabad. Chennaiyin manager Owen Coyle is coming under tremendous pressure with his team two points away from Punjab in the league table. Owen Coyle is likely to make key decisions to the starting line-up in a bid to help rediscover the form.

Star man – Conor Shields

Conor Shields has been one of the few bright spots for Chennaiyin so far in a disappointing campaign. The Scottish midfielder has been able to get three goals in his 14 appearances. Even though he has not scored since his brace against Punjab in the middle of October, the 26-year-old remains a key asset for the team.

Odisha FC Preview

Reasons to be cheerful 

• Odisha have managed three wins in the last five games

• The club showed fighting spirit by coming back from behind to beat East Bengal

Reasons to be fearful

• Odisha have kept only two clean sheets in the last five games

• The team has scored over 1.5 goals only once in the last three matches

Odisha have been able to open up a three-point advantage over Mumbai City at the top of the table following the success over East Bengal. Despite going down after just a minute on the board, Odisha showed plenty of fighting spirit to get back and win the three points. Coach Sergio Lobera has an exceptional record against Chennaiyin with only two defeats in 12 games against this opponent.

Star man – Roy Krishna

Roy Krishna remains the top scorer despite having failed to find the back of the net for Odisha in the last two matches. The veteran last scored in the draw with Goa, but he still has a remarkable 11 goals for the campaign.

CHENNAIYIN FC vs ODISHA FC
Winning Prediction

Odisha are the table leaders by a decent margin and the recent success over East Bengal once again proved that the club are deserving to be leading the table with only a handful of matches left. Chennaiyin are struggling in what is turning out to be a very disappointing campaign. Despite playing at home, Chennaiyin might end up with nothing to show for the efforts against Odisha.
