While looking at the point table you will find that Chennaiyian FC is in 8th position while Odisha FC is at the bottom of the table. So if you think that it will be an easy win for Chennaiyans then you will be fooled. Two massive twists happened...One on the field, one off the field. While Odisha tasted their first win in the last match with a scoreline of 4-2, on the other hand, Chennaiyian had lost their most creative footballer who literally controls the game for them Crivelaro is going to miss the next couple of games if not the entire tournament, it is a huge blow for the Chennaiyan team.
As usual, let us now compare the details of the attack, defence & distribution to understand where are the teams positioned now.
Chennaiyan FC ATTACK Odisha FC
If you compare these you can easily see while Chennai has better shots on target, the shooting accuracy of them are good, but their conversion rate is almost the poorest in case of this ISL.
If you look at the defence Chart you will understand why Odisha is lagging at the bottom of the table in this ISL
Chennaiyan FC DEFENCE Odisha FC
Though Odisha is looking good in Tackles success rate & tackles won, but still they lag in where it hurts most, the number of goals conceded. And if they cannot change this drastically then the journey ahead will be continuous to be difficult for them,
And let us come to the part of the distribution of the game, which involves one of the most vital symbols of a team comparison. And here it is
Now when we tried to compare the person who is in the scoring spree, Chennayian have Anirudha Thapa, Rahim Ali both have their share of 2 goals and others scored 1. But in the case of Odisha, they have found Mauricio who scored 5, and though he was not awarded the goal but the own goal awarded to Jackson, still it was his goal and there is no point in the comparison. Odisha has scored through him & Steven Taylor, who worked well on set-pieces. So it is to see if Mauricio is blocked properly how the Odisha team performs.
So let us compare on defensive players. We have taken 2 players, one from Indian Circuit & another Foreign player to do these comparisons.
Jeje Lalrinzuala Gaurav Bora
And the second one is Eli Sabia on one hand and Steven Taylor on the other.
Eli Sabia Steven Taylor
Hope it is clear to you all why the Chennai team is doing better than the Odisha team.
And also to be said Chennai is not playing up to any potential they used to play. We always remember Chennai as for the Last ISL where they had the most amazing long-run streak of winning and almost became Champions. We hope the striker Sylvestor & Sipovic comes in the form and that should turn the tables good for Chennai.
On the other hand, when a team can score 4 pals in a match you can also score some early goals fro that inspiration and try to seal the game is what is awaited from Odisha. Hope they will try to carry on the winning streak.
