With some smart acquisitions and the appointment of former international Clifford Miranda, Chennaiyin FC look far more promising than in recent seasons. Key players like Farukh Choudhary, Irfan Yadwad, and the experienced Noguera will need to fire in attack.

**Inter Kashi** are no pushovers for a debut side. Coached by the experienced Antonio Lopez Habas, the Varanasi-based club won the I-League last year before making their maiden ISL appearance this season. Inter Kashi have secured 1 win in their last 4 matches with 2 draws and 1 loss, scoring an average of 0.75 goals per game [Dailysports](https://dailysports.net/stat/football/chennaiyin-fc-vs-inter-kashi/) — marginally better than their opponents going into this clash.

## Key Battles to Watch

The battle between Chennaiyin’s creative engine Alberto Noguera and Inter Kashi’s disciplined defensive unit led by Spanish centre-back David Humanes will be central to this match. Humanes played practically every game in the I-League and the team allowed only 15 goals in the 16 matches he started, including six clean sheets. [Khel Now](https://khelnow.com/football/indian-football-isl-2025-26-inter-kashi-predicted-xi-202602) Noguera will need his best game to unlock that defence.

## Match Prediction

Both teams are low on confidence and goals, making this a tight, tactical affair. Chennaiyin’s slight home advantage and experience edge tips it in their favour. **Prediction: Chennaiyin FC 1–0 Inter Kashi.**
