Hyderabad FC have already secured their spot in the knockout phase of the competition with three wins in their opening three games. Manolo Marquez’s team has been in excellent form this season, with players such as Bartholomew Ogbeche and Javi Siverio in amazing goal-scoring form. Hyderabad definitely looks like a top contender for the title and will be hoping to continue their winning run.
Army Red have yet to win a game in this tournament and have only two points after three group stage games. They are coming off a setback against TRAU FC in the previous game and will attempt to make a comeback in this encounter. The Services side is mathematically still in with a chance of qualifying, but they must win and rely on the outcome of the final Group C encounter between Chennaiyin FC and NEROCA FC.
East Bengal have failed to register a goal in each of their three Durand Cup matches under new boss Stephen Constantine. The Red and Gold were held to goalless draws by Indian Navy and Rajasthan United before falling 1-0 to city rivals ATK Mohun Bagan on Sunday. East Bengal are already out of contention for a playoff berth with only two points from their three games and will be playing for pride.
On the contrary, their rivals Mumbai City FC have been head and shoulders above every side in Group B. Led by their vibrant manager Des Buckingham, Mumbai defeated Indian Navy 4-1 in their first encounter of the competition before drawing 1-1 with ATK Mohun Bagan. Mumbai then trounced Rajasthan United 5-1 to seal their place in the quarter-finals of the historic competition.
