• The defensive performances from Odisha have not been up to the mark

Hyderabad FC Preview

Reasons to be cheerful 

• The club recovered from a two-game losing sequence

• Hyderabad have beaten Odisha in four out of the last games

Reasons to be fearful

• The team remains very poor in terms of creating chances

• Hyderabad have scored only one goal in the last three games

Hyderabad remain one of the two winless teams in the league after a draw with NorthEast United. Coach Thangboi Singto was reasonably happy with the performance of his players as they grabbed a draw against an opponent who are close to the top half of the table. Yet, failing to get a victory so far this season has left Hyderabad at the bottom of the table.

Hyderabad made only a couple of changes in the last match and they have no injury concerns.

Star man – Petteri Pennanen

Petteri Pennanen came up with his first goal for his new team in the game against NorthEast United. It has taken the midfielder quite a while to get acclimatised to the Indian Super League. The former Ilves player will be hoping to build on this goal. The 33-year-old can be expected to come up with a decent performance.

Even though Odisha has struggled against Hyderabad in the past, they are expected to get a comfortable victory.
