Two-time champions Chennaiyin FC will look to build on their winning start when they face Kerala Blasters FC in the Indian Super League (ISL) tie at the GMC Stadium in Bambolim, Goa on Sunday.
Chennaiyin FC come into the match on the back of a commanding win over Jamshedpur FC in their opening ISL 2020-21 fixture.
Under new head coach Csaba László, Chennaiyin FC have swiftly adapted to the Romanian’s style of play. Indian football players like Anirudh Thapa and Lallianzuala Chhangte, in particular, have flourished in their new-found freedom in the attacking third.
While Anirudh Thapa scored the fastest goal of the ISL 2020-21 season, finding the back on the net in the 52nd second, the likes of Esmael Goncalves and Lallianzuala Chhangte also proved to be a challenge for the Jamshedpur FC backline.
Captain Rafael Crivellaro once again proved his worth by dictating play from the middle while the Chennaiyin FC backline held its shape, barely giving their opponents any room to manoeuvre a move.
The Chennai outfit will be looking to deliver more of its style of play when they line-up against a Kerala Blasters side that has found it hard to live up to the expectations so far in ISL 2020-21. Catch Chennaiyin FC vs Kerala Blasters on live streaming and on TV.
In their second game, against NorthEast United FC, the Kibu Vicuña-coached side showed some flair and scored two goals, they could not hold on to the advantage as NorthEast rallied to share the spoils that evening.
A Chennaiyin FC vs Kerala Blasters clash in the past few seasons has been entertaining, to say the least. With as many as 16 goals scored in their previous five meetings, one could expect a goal-fest on Sunday as well.
