In the upcoming ISL 2023-24 match, Kerala Blasters FC will aim to reclaim the top spot on the points table after being displaced by FC Goa with a 1-0 victory over Jamshedpur. Kerala Blasters FC, under the management of Ivan Vukomanovic, has shown consistency with five wins in their opening seven matches. Despite being displaced from the top spot, the head coach, Marina Machan, believes that their current points tally doesn’t fully reflect the team’s quality.
On the other hand, Chennaiyin FC, led by Owen Coyle, has accumulated seven points from their first seven appearances and is looking to improve their performance. In their recent match, Chennaiyin FC played to a 1-1 draw at home against East Bengal FC. The team has demonstrated moments of brilliance but has struggled with clinicality in the final third.
But the Serbian gaffer is wary of the threat that Wednesday’s opponents possess. At the pre-match press conference, Vukomanovic stated: “Our games against Chennaiyin FC have always been tough. I expect a very tough, physical game with many duels tomorrow. It is the type of game that has always happened between these two teams. Where we or our opponent stand at the table at the moment doesn’t matter right now.”
The upcoming clash between Kerala Blasters FC and Chennaiyin FC at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Kochi on November 29 promises to be an exciting encounter, with both teams vying for crucial points in the ISL standings.
