Chennaiyin FC vs Hyderabad FC: Head-to-head stats and numbers you need to know ahead of the ISL 2022-23 match

Chennaiyin FC will lock horns with defending champions Hyderabad FC in an ISL 2022-23 fixture at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Friday, December 3.

Both teams come into the match on the back of losses. The Marina Machans were stunned by a comeback victory by Odisha FC at the Kalinga Stadium in their previous game. Nandhakumar Sekar scored the winner in the 97th minute to take the encounter away from Thomas Brdaric’s side.

Chennai are currently seventh in the league standings but can leapfrog FC Goa and Kerala Blasters FC into fifth place with a victory.

Meanwhile, the Nizams were toppled from the second spot after two consecutive losses. Manolo Marquez's men suffered a 1-0 defeat against ATK Mohun Bagan in their last outing.

Prior to that, they fell to a defeat by the same scoreline against last season's finalists, Kerala Blasters FC.
