Currently, at 24 points from 21 games, even three wins from here will take them to 33 \u2013 just one more than the currently sixth-positioned Mumbai City FC (32), who also have as many games in hand (currently played 21).<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The situation is not so bright for Hyderabad FC, who have won and lost twice each in the previous five games, placing themselves in the penultimate position with 17 points from 21 encounters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
East Bengal FC have not lost in their previous three ISL fixtures against Hyderabad FC, winning twice and drawing once. It is their longest such active streak against any opponent. Another positive outcome will make it their joint-longest unbeaten run against a single opponent in the ISL.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Hyderabad FC, however, are struggling on the road, since they have been winless in their previous six away games (D1 L5) \u2013 and their last longest such sequence spanned 10 matches from March 2023 to February 2024. Regardless of the current playoff scenarios, both these sides will look to take their learning from the season so far to sign off on a high.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
East Bengal FC have netted three goals in each of their last two matches. They have never scored multiple goals in three successive ISL games before, and the side will look to snap that streak against Hyderabad FC. Hyderabad FC have faced losses in 12 matches this season, with eight of those coming away from home. Only NorthEast United FC (9 in 2022-23) have recorded more away defeats in a single ISL campaign.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
