It’s fitting that the top two sides in the ISL regular phase have gone on to also make this season’s final, as table-toppers Bengaluru FC meet Chennaiyin FC in the battle to see who will be crowned champions.
This tie is very much in the balance after last week’s first leg draw, however John Gregory’s FC Chennaiyin side will be looking to make use of the home advantage at their disposal and progress to the final. Should they do so...

We’ve now reached the business end of the ISL season with the first leg of the semi-final between FC Pune City and Bengaluru FC on the horizon.
