If the Red Machines emerge victorious, they will cut the gap on leaders Chennai City FC to two points. With big games like the Kolkata derby between East Bengal and Mohun Bagan and top of the table clash between Real Kashmir FC and Chennai City FC to follow, Churchill Brothers’ home game with the Indian Arrows assumes a lot of importance.
A victory here will help coach Petre Gigiu’s side to keep the pressure on the title-chasing pack.
