Hello and welcome the live coverage of tonight's Hero Indian Super League game as Chennaiyin FC take on Mumbai City FC at the Marina Arena in Chennai, India.

The Southern city if Chennai is all set for its last league stage game of the ISL season, as Chennaiyin FC host Mumbai City FC at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, on Saturday.

Chennaiyin have been on prime form this season, and have managed to qualify for the semifinals with one game still in hand. While this game may be a dead rubber, Chennaiyin would still be aware of the fact that they have not been on particularly good form of late, winning just one of their last five games.

They will also look to avoid the fourth spot on the league table, which would ensure a semifinal against the strong Bengaluru FC side.

Meanwhile, Mumbai’s challenge for a place in the top four has fizzled out of late, and the Islanders will be looking to close out the season with a good result against Chennaiyin tonight. Their recent 5-1 loss at the hands of Delhi Dynamos did their confidence any good, and they will be looking to turn things around for one more match.
