Chennaiyin FC vs FC Goa: Head-to-head stats and other numbers you need to know
Former champions Chennaiyin FC will be looking to get back to winning ways when they face FC Goa in the 2021-22 Indian Super League (ISL) on Wednesday at the Tilak Maidan Stadium in Vasco, Goa.
In their previous game, they suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Mumbai City FC after conceding a late goal in the 85th minute. The two-time champions, who are currently eighth in the standings with 19 points from 15 games, need more points on the board if they are to stay in contention for the playoffs.
FC Goa, on the other hand, have gone winless in their last five games. The Goan club are currently ninth in the standings with 15 points in their kitty. They've failed to live up to the expectations after achieving the AFC Champions League feat.
The narrative of the current ISL season is rather tricky for both ISL teams, but a win keeps their spirits up heading onto a new season. It will be interesting to see if the two clubs can overcome their previous setbacks and get back on track.
