BFC Vs CFC Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Hosts strive to hammer down on a spot in the top 4 and assure themselves of a spot in the proceeding round.
From being in the dumps of the Indian Super League to now finding themselves well within sights of breaching the top 4, Chennaiyin’s revival in the league is worthy of being lauded. The club has gone onto register four wins in succession, climbing all the way into fifth place with the club reducing the deficit between themselves and Mumbai to 5 points.
It’s the attacking thrust which has been particularly deserving of all the plaudits. They hit Kerala Blasters for 6 the last time around to preserve in a 9 goal thriller with the side coming out on top 6-3. And come Bengaluru, Chennaiyin will be looking to emulate the same electric performance and continue in their compelling spiral up the points tally.
“We knew that we had to do better defensively. Bengaluru are a threat at set-plays. We will look at it. We don’t leave any stone unturned. They have options. We have to be ready for that challenge. It is a challenge we want to come on top of. If we do that, we get three very important points,” Hyderabad’s manager Coyle said when speaking about his side’s approach to the encounter.
Probable Winner
While Chennaiyin’s resurgence is note worthy and one to write home about, the defensive side of the side’s unit has failed to step up its game. It’s something which should cost Chennaiyin today with a clinical and stern Bengaluru defence ensuring the side is able to string together the three points from this contest.

BFC Vs CFC Dream11 Goal-Keeper
Chennaiyin’s Vishal Kaith will be coming into our side as the goal-keeper for this encounter. He and his side have failed to safeguard their goal however with us envisioning both the sides conceding in this one, Vishal offers good value given the amount of saves he’ll pull off.
BFC Vs CFC Dream11 Defenders
The strictest defence in the league with a mere 9 goals allowed past them all term, Bengaluru’s defensive acumen has left sides in angst. And while Chennaiyin scored 6 last time round, in Bengaluru they are coming across a breed of a different quality, one which they’ll find tough to breach.
It sees us repose faith in the electric duo of Albert Serran and Juanan for this fixture with the two making for a partnership which has remained undeterred infront of the most formidable of attacks. Elsewhere, we have the one player join us up from the opposition as well with Lucian Goian coming in.
BFC Vs CFC Dream11 Midfielders
Up against a side which has shipped in the 23 goals, Bengaluru should be able to instil in place an endearing attacking performance. It’s a discourse which sees us repose faith in the exhilarating Dimas Delgado from Bengaluru along with Erik Paartalu who has scored twice for his team this season.
From Chennaiyin meanwhile, we’ll be beginning with the selection of Rafael Crivellaro with the player having piled on a staggering 6 goals to act the talisman of his side’s attacking soirees with Edwin Vanspaul giving him company.
BFC Vs CFC Dream11 Strikers
