## Match Preview

This is Churchill Brothers’ first-ever ISL season, which makes every away trip a milestone. The Blasters get a friendly run of home games in December, with Kochi hosting them on the 6th, 10th and 14th. Churchill, meanwhile, play Chennaiyin four days later and then FC Goa in the first Goan derby in ISL history.

For Ashley Westwood’s side, this is a chance to build home momentum under a new era. For the visitors, it’s a test of whether their debut campaign can handle the pressure of a packed stadium.

## Teams and Expected Lineups

Official lineups aren’t out yet, and clubs usually confirm them about an hour before kick-off. Until then, expect both coaches to lean on their ISL squads, so check the [Kerala Blasters official site](https://www.keralablastersfc.in) for team news. For background on the visitors, the [Churchill Brothers FC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Churchill_Brothers_FC) page covers their history.

## Prediction

Home advantage in Kochi is hard to ignore, and Churchill are still finding their feet at this level. My lean is a narrow home win, around 2-1 to the Blasters. That’s an opinion, not a certainty, since a month of results will change the picture.
