CFC vs ODS Dream11 Match Prediction

CFC vs ODS Dream11: Following the first win of the campaign in the last game, Chennaiyin FC will look to keep the momentum going when they play Odisha FC in the back-to-back home games at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, in Chennai, on Thursday evening (IST).

Finally a victory parade!

The Marina Arena head coach John Gregory made it clear before the game against Hyderabad that his team must collect six points from the next two games. Well, there you go, Chennai collected three points in the last game, to end its winless start to the season, and so, the team is one win away from meeting the immediate target set by the manager.

It was a huge relief for both the manager and the players; the monkey off the back; as the whole squad can now look to build on that win and rack up some important wins in the next couple of weeks. No more questions about the only team left in ISL without a win.

But was it luck, or did Gregory’s men carve out the result by their sheer efforts? People can have different perceptions about the results when a team wins by scoring two goals in the 2nd half injury time. The opponent lost its focus, there were tired legs and all sorts of reasons. And another way to gauge the result is to praise the team’s never-say-die attitude, the hunger and the above all, it shows that Chennaiyin player are firmly behind their underfire manager, and are ready to give all to him and to the team’s cause.

Odisha need the momentum going!

Odisha FC, on the other hand, have played two back-to-back 0-0s against Kerala Blasters and ATK respectively, and come into this game on a three-game unbeaten run. That’s a good base to build the foundations for a successful season, and that’s something manager Josep Gombau needs this season, following a very disappointing campaign with Delhi Capitals last season.
