Dimas Delgado was declared unfit to start as he struggled through injury. However, the Spaniard's exclusion from the game was a huge blow to Bengaluru FC as he is usually the one who dictates the pace of the game and releases the likes of Chhetri and Udanta with threaded through balls. The absence of Dimas Delgado meant Harmanjot Khabra would start at his position

However, the full-back was disappointing in midfield and provided no real threat to Chennaiyin FC. Udanta and Chhetri were pretty ineffective through the game and never got much of the ball. With Chennaiyin FC playing a tight game and not giving the Blues any space to work with, the creativity and through balls of Delgado was a huge miss for BFC.
