THE PREDICTION
East Bengal moved off the bottom of the Indian Super League after securing a draw last time out vs Kerala Blasters. However, that draw will have felt like defeat after conceding a 95th minute equaliser and they are still yet to find that elusive first win of the season. Robbie Fowler’s side will hope to secure it here against Chennaiyin, however the ‘Marina Machans’ come into this encounter on a high after picking up four points from their last two Indian Super League fixtures including a win in their most recent match vs Goa. The first goal will likely be crucial in this one, with East Bengal’s heads sure to drop if they concede first. With Chennaiyin having conceded just five goals this season, it is that miserly defence that should see them edge out a narrow victory here.
