Trevor Morgan calls for pride from East Bengal players Chennai City FC meanwhile have come out of the fallout with Haroon Amiri with flying colours as they recorded a shock win against East Bengal to derail their I-League ambitions.  However, what will come as a body blow for their ambitions against Minerva will be the absence of Nandhakumar and Prasanth due to injury, both of whom had scored against the Red and Golds.  Marcos Thank too has not traveled with the squad with V Soundararajan not believing he is up to the mark.  Interestingly, Chennai City’s form away from home is the worst in the league as in their five away matches, they have lost all five. Not that Minerva’s home form is anything to write home about with 1 win, 3 losses and 3 draws.  With the lack of goalscoring options all around, do not be surprised if you see yet another stalemate. PREDICTED LINE-UPS
