The Indian Super League returns to the Mumbai Football Arena this Thursday as Mumbai City FC kicks off its 2025-26 campaign against a rejuvenated Chennaiyin FC. With both clubs navigating a truncated season and significant roster shifts, this opening clash promises to be a high-stakes test of tactical adaptation.
Mumbai City FC, still under the guidance of Petr Kratky, enters a transitional era following the departure of the City Football Group’s ownership support. Despite operating with a leaner foreign contingent of just four players—including the returning Jorge Pereyra Díaz and former Mohun Bagan star Joni Kauko—the Islanders remain a formidable force. Backed by an elite Indian core featuring Lallianzuala Chhangte and Brandon Fernandes, they aim to maintain their status as perennial title contenders.
In the opposing dugout, Clifford Miranda makes his debut as Chennaiyin FC's head coach. The former Mumbai City assistant faces a steep climb to restore the "Marina Machans" to their former glory after an 11th-place finish last term. Bolstered by new international signings like Alberto Noguera and Iñigo Martin, Chennaiyin looks to erase a 14-match winless streak against the Islanders that dates back to 2020.
With no major injury concerns reported, both squads are expected to be at full strength. While Mumbai boasts a formidable psychological edge at home, Chennaiyin's overhauled leadership group—captained by a mix of domestic veterans and fresh foreign faces—is desperate to prove they are no longer the league's underdogs.
