### Match Preview & Prediction

Punjab FC head into this fixture in fine fettle. They’ve won their last two home games, bagging **five goals** in those victories. With **10 points from their last 15 available**, the Lions have been playing some of their best football of the season — tactically disciplined and sharp in attack.

Chennaiyin FC, on the other hand, are in a rough patch. Only bottom-placed Mohammedan SC have scored fewer goals than them this campaign. Sitting in the bottom three with fewer than 10 points, they’ve simply not had the firepower to compete on the road.

**Our call: Punjab FC to Win** — home advantage, form, and Chennaiyin’s attacking woes all point in one direction.

### Expected Lineups

**Punjab FC (Expected XI):** Goalkeeper | Back Four | Midfield | Attack — compact pressing shape, with full-backs pushing forward to exploit Chennaiyin’s defensive fragility.

**Chennaiyin FC (Expected XI):** Likely to set up in a **4-4-2**, as seen in recent fixtures, leaning on midfield structure to compensate for limited scoring options up front.
