JFC vs HYD Match Preview
Apart from a 2-1 loss to Odisha FC, Jamshedpur FC has made a commendable start to the 2024-25 season with sensational comeback wins over FC Goa and Mumbai City FC before registering a 2-0 success over pointless East Bengal ahead of the international break. Rei Tachikawa and Lalchungnunga’s own goal sealed the victory for the Men of Steels who now sit third on the ISL table, four points away from the top spot. Khalid Jamil failed to direct his side to playoff qualification last season despite changing fortunes after being appointed to his role last year. So, the I-League winning coach will be delighted with the start of his first full season with the club and he would like to continue it for long to achieve their goal this time. Jamshedpur FC will welcome ninth-place Hyderabad FC in their third home game this season, hoping to add to their five wins in this fixture in 10 meetings.
Hyderabad FC earned their first point of the season before the international break with a 0-0 draw at home against Chennaiyin FC, ending a five-game winless run in the league. Their last positive result in the competition also came against Marina Machans when they picked up their only victory of the previous season in March this year. The credit goes to the new signing Arshdeep Singh, who made six crucial saves to keep his team in the game, despite being largely dominated by the visitors. For financial doldrums, the Nawabs finished rock-bottom last time collecting only eight points from the 22 available matches and will be desperate to change the outcome with new ownership in place. With the transfer ban also withdrawing late despite securing some interesting names, Hyderabad FC had a slow start with heavy defeats to leaders Bengaluru FC and second-placed Punjab FC but the result against Chennaiyin FC will encourage them to pick up wishful result ahead.
