Hyderabad FC vs ATK Mohun Bagan: HFC vs ATKMB Dream11 Team Prediction Fantasy Football Tips for Today's ISL Match - March 9, 2023
Hyderabad FC (HFC) lock horns with ATK Mohun Bagan (ATKMB) in the first leg of Semi-Final 2 of the Hero Indian Super League 22/23 on Thursday, March 9, at the GMC Balayogi Athletic Stadium in Hyderabad.
This is a clash between the side that finished second in the points table (Hyderabad FC) and the winner of the Second Knockout fixture (ATK Mohun Bagan). The visitors come into this match on the back of a convincing 2-0 victory over Odisha FC in the knockout fixture and will want to return to their home leg without a deficit.
Meanwhile, Hyderabad FC finished their season with a 1-0 win over the Kerala Blasters but didn't have such a great final run of games, winning only two out of their last five, including the win against the Blasters. While that may be due to the rotation in their lineup, they'll want to get back to their normal, defensively solid self to take on their formidable opponents.

Hyderabad FC vs ATK Mohun Bagan Dream11 Fantasy Suggestions
The previous two meetings between the two sides in the group stage finished 1-0, with the teams winning on their respective home grounds. Both of these sides have been extremely solid defensively, letting in only 16 goals (HFC) and 17 goals (ATKMB).
It wouldn't be prudent to expect anything but a cagey encounter between two well-organized, well-drilled defenses, with some excellent attackers as well.
I've set both my teams in a 4-4-2 formation, with a slight preference for the home side's players. Asish Rai, Akash Mishra, Mohammad Yasir, Hugo Boumous, Halicharan Narzary, Dimitri Petratos, and Bartholomew Ogbeche are must-haves in my view.
Hugo Boumous, Mohammad Yasir, and the two main strikers Ogbeche and Petratos would be my preferred captaincy picks.
