The previous season of the Indian Super League ended in heartbreak for Chennaiyin FC and their fans following a 3-1 loss in the final against ATK. Such was the impact of the loss that Owen Coyle and his staff tendered their resignations and the former Bolton Wanderers manager moved to Jamshedpur FC.
New boss Csaba Laszlo has had his work cut out for him, especially following the departure of top-scorer and Golden Boot winner Nerijus Valskis. The Hungarian has added the likes of Fatkhulo Fathkuloev and Isma Gonclaves to the squad, both of whom have a good record when it comes to scoring goals.
Chennaiyin FC will begin their campaign against Jamshedpur FC on the 24th of November at the Tilak Maidan Stadium in Margao behind closed doors.
However, before that, the club will square off in three pre-season friendlies. The first match against Mumbai City FC ended in a 1-0 loss with Adam le Fondre netting the only goal of the match.
Laszlo's men will square off against FC Goa on the 8th of November before playing their final friendly match against Odisha FC on the 15th of November.
