Hyderabad FC vs FC Goa Team News
Hyderabad FC
Head coach Manuel Marquez Roca's side has suffered a bump in their smooth ride at the ISL 2020-21. After staying unbeaten over the course of five matches, the Nizams have now lost two in a row. Both their defeats (against Mumbai City FC and Kerala Blasters FC) ended in a 2-0 scoreline.
However, Roca will likely not tamper much with his side that has been defensively solid for the most part. The central defensive pairing of Odei Onaindia and Chinglensana Singh has worked well. They have young full-backs, Asish Rai and Akash Mishra on the flanks to provide attacking support as well.
Hitesh Sharma and Joao Victor will continue to operate in the central midfield with Halicharan Narzary and Nikhil Poojary wreaking havoc on the wings. The Nizams have the clinical Aridane Santana up front who is a lethal goal poacher.
Injured - Fran Sandaza, Lluis Sastre, Joel Chianese
Doubtful - None
Suspension - None

Igor Angulo continues to prove his mettle as he added two more goals to his debut ISL season tally. He scored an injury-time goal to clinch the three points against the Red Miners.
