Chennaiyin FC and Bengaluru FC lock horns in a Southern Derby on Friday, October 14, at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Chennai. Both sides got their campaigns off to a winning start, courtesy of late winners from Rahim Ali and Alan Costa, respectively.
Chennaiyin haven't won consecutive matches in the last two seasons, and they'll be keen to end that run in front of their home crowd. Despite not controlling the game, Thomas Brdaric's side improved massively in the second half to make a comeback. Striker Kwame Karikari was influential in the turnaround, winning and scoring a penalty before setting up Rahim Ali for the winner.
Bengaluru FC, meanwhile, created plenty of chances but could muster only two shots on target. It took an 87th-minute header from towering center-back Alan Costa to secure the three points for Thomas Grayson's side. They'll look to sharpen their finishing, especially with Roy Krishna and Sunil Chhetri leading the line.

Chennaiyin FC vs Bengaluru FC Dream11 Fantasy Suggestions
With both sides eking out wins by one goal in their previous fixtures, it's hard to call this game, especially with Chennaiyin playing in front of home support. Alan Costa, Naorem Roshan Singh, Fallou Diagne, Bruno Silva, Julius Duker, Anirudh Thapa, and Kwame Karikari are the players likely to be retained across both teams.
These players will have an important role to play in this match and have a high chance of scoring good points, irrespective of the result. However, picking Roy Krishna in only one of the suggestions is definitely risky. Sivasakthi Narayanan in midfield could be a valuable differential option.
Fantasy Suggestion #1: Debjit Majumder, Sandesh Jhingan, Alan Costa, Naorem Roshan Singh, Fallou Diagne, Anirudh Thapa, Julius Duker, Sivasakthi Narayanan, Bruno Silva Almeida, Sunil Chhetri, and Kwame Karikari.
Captain: Kwame Karikari. Vice-Captain: Sunil Chhetri.
Fantasy Suggestion #2: Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, Prabir Das, Alan Costa, Naorem Roshan Singh, Fallou Diagne, Anirudh Thapa, Julius Duker, Bruno Silva Almeida, Roy Krishna, Rahim Ali, and Kwame Karikari.
Captain: Naorem Roshan Singh. Vice-Captain: Roy Krishna.
