GAME PREVIEW


It's a top of the table clash in the ISL on Tuesday as league leaders Bengaluru FC travel to face second-placed Chennaiyin FC at the Jawaharlal Nehru stadium in Chennai.
There is always history between teams from Tamil Nadu and Karnataka and we could very well see a heated clash on Tuesday. Moreover, the two teams have been churning out results and are in good form.

Chennaiyin FC are coming fresh off an 11-day break after their last game against ATK which they won 2-1 away. John Gregory's team will be fit and raring to go as the league enters a decisive phase.
In contrast, Albert Roca's Bengaluru FC are in the middle of a busy run of fixtures and last played on Saturday and now have another game coming up next Friday.

Chennaiyin FC, who play a physical game in midfield and defence, will be hard to break down for Roca's outfit who have been struggling in midfield of late. Which is why, Roca will probably include Dimas Delgado, who did not start the previous game, in the starting XI against Chennaiyin FC.
The spotlight will also be on Jeje Lalpekhlua and Sunil Chhetri, two of India's best forwards, who are competing with each other in the battle for the golden boot.

When these two sides met earlier this season in Bangalore, Chennaiyin FC won an intense contest 2-1 with Dhanpal Ganesh scoring the winner and the match witnessed heated debates and moments.

Bengaluru FC will be keen to gain a measure of revenge on Tuesday by beating the Marina Machans at the Marina Arena.
Will Gregory mastermind another victory over Bengaluru or will Roca’s armada sink Chennaiyin FC
