In what is hyped up as the Southern Derby, two-time champions Chennaiyin FC (CFC) will face Bengaluru FC (BFC) in an ISL 2023-24 match at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Chennai tonight (December 13).
Both teams haven't experienced the positive start they anticipated. Chennaiyin FC, currently struggling at the eighth spot, have recorded two wins, three draws, and four losses so far. Owen Coyle remains optimistic about tonight's contest, having implemented new tactics with the team.
A victory would propel the Marina Machans into the top 6 of the table, facilitating their playoff contention.
On the other hand, Bengaluru FC find themselves in the midst of their least successful campaign since their inception, with just one win from nine matches, placing them in the ninth position with only seven points.
