Seventh-placed Chennaiyin FC are set to lock horns with second-placed ATK Mohun Bagan at the GMC Athletic Stadium in Bambolim.

Chennaiyin FC missed the opportunity to climb up the points table in their last match against SC East Bengal. They squandered their lead twice in the Boxing Day tie to draw 2-2 with the Red and Gold brigade.

The Marina Machan’s defence was shabby in their last match and needs to step up against a strong attack.

ATK Mohun Bagan, meanwhile, come into this game with a lot of confidence after beating Bengaluru FC 1-0.

Chennaiyin FC will go head to head with ATK Mohun Bagan for the first time in the ISL. However, Chennaiyin FC have squared off against the erstwhile ATK 15 times in the ISL previously. Chennaiyin FC have won four, while ATK have won seven. The remaining four ties ended in draws. The last time the two sides met, ATK beat Chennaiyin 3-1 to lift the ISL Season 6 trophy.

PREDICTION: Total goals scored will be Over 0.5
