ISL 2024-25: East Bengal FC And Chennaiyin FC Face Off To Keep Top-6 Ambitions Alive
Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan: Chennaiyin FC will take on East Bengal FC in their Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 fixture at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan (VYBK) on Saturday. The Marina Machans are on a seven-game-long winless run, with their last victory coming in a 1-0 triumph against Hyderabad FC on December 11.
Since then, they have succumbed to four defeats and three draws – with the side languishing at the 11th spot in the points table, having 18 points to their name. East Bengal FC are 10th in the table with 18 points from as many games – and both these sides trail the sixth-placed Mumbai City FC (28) by 10 points with only a handful of games left to turnaround their fortunes.
East Bengal FC had won the reverse fixture by 2-0 on December 7, 2024. They will be targeting three points again, which could make the Marina Machans only the third team against whom the Red & Gold Brigade complete a league double over in the ISL, after Bengaluru FC (2022-23) and Hyderabad FC (2023-24).
