With just a couple of games left of the Indian Super League we have reached the business end of the season as the race for a top 4 finish is heating up. Kerala are one of the teams looking on from outside the playoff picture and they desperately need three points here in order to boost their top 4 chances. Currently Kerala are just a point outside of the top 4 and know a win here could move them into 4th spot level with third place ATK Mohun Bagan.

Match Result

The two teams head into this match in very differing form. Kerala Blasters have had a mixed time of things lately and have taken seven points from the last possible fifteen. There have been two wins sandwiched between two defeats and a draw. For Chennaiyin the wheels have come off dramatically at the worst possible time. They have just seen a return of two points from the last five games, a run that has seen them draw twice and lose another three games. Chennaiyin are out of the top 4 picture but can go a long way in shaping who gets in. With home form and better form, the smart play has to be on Kerala picking up an all important victory and boosting their top 4 potential.

Both teams to score

Three of the last five matches between the teams have seen both teams score. Over the last five matches there have been a total of eighteen goals scored so there is every chance this game will see more goals. Chennaiyin have conceded buckets of goals lately having conceded fourteen goals in the last five matches. However we think both teams have a great chance of finding the back of the net here as Chennaiyin despite their defensive difficulties have scored in each of their last five away games. Kerala have scored in four of their last five home games. Everything looks set up for both teams to score here.

Over 2.5 goals

Three of the last five meetings between the pair have seen over 2.5 goals and we think there could be every chance of the feat happening once again. With both sides struggling to keep clean sheets we think this is a game that could see goals and we think backing over 2.5 goals is the smart way to play here.
