Hyderabad FC vs Mumbai City FC: Preview, probable lineups, prediction, telecast details, and more ahead of ISL 2023-24 clash

Languishing in the bottom spot, Hyderabad FC are beaten but not yet battered as they highlighted with their maiden victory of the ISL 2023-24 season before the international break. They welcome Mumbai City FC, placed at the contrasting end of the league table, next at the Gachibowli Stadium on Monday, April 1.

The Nizams delivered a spirited performance against Chennaiyin FC to walk away with a 1-0 victory. However, the league leaders will pose a different magnitude of threat altogether. The Islanders have accumulated 41 points from 19 games and lead the standings, but they can't afford any slip-ups with Mohun Bagan SG breathing right down their necks.

Since the league resumed from the mid-season break in January, they have won all of their last four away games, scoring nine times and conceding only twice in the process.

“We’ve had good training sessions behind us to prepare for the game against Hyderabad. I don’t think there needs to be too much motivation for the boys. They’ve been here before, they’ve done it before, and they know what they’re doing,” Mumbai City FC head coach Petr Kratky said in the pre-match press conference.

Meanwhile, the Thingboi Singto-coached outfit broke their undesired 20-game-long winless streak in their previous outing. Their off-field troubles haven't eased out but their on-field confidence has grown by leaps and bounds.
