NextGOAL tip: Chennaiyin (level) · 1 stars
Chennaiyin host Kerala Blasters in the Indian Super League, with the home side still without a win this season, having picked up just a single point from three matches, and in their latest outing they lost at home 0-1 to a slightly superior team. Kerala Blasters, meanwhile, have taken four points from three matches and ended their most recent game with a 0-0 draw. Looking at the bigger picture, Chennaiyin have lost two in a row and are without a win in five, but their defence has not collapsed in every game; the 0-1 and 0-2 defeats mean they conceded fewer goals than in the 1-4 loss earlier in the season. As for Kerala Blasters, they won the first three games of their run before stumbling with a 1-4 defeat and then closing with a 0-0 draw, so their attack is not entirely settled. This game is likely to be a controlled, back-and-forth affair, with neither side opening up with heavy attacking from the start, because both have just finished games with low scorelines and both need points to steady themselves. The first thing to watch after kick-off is how deep Chennaiyin sit and whether they let Kerala Blasters have the ball, because if the home side defend compactly, the game could end in a draw or the hosts could nick it from a counter-attack.
