Khalid Jamil's NEUFC has not kickstarted its season yet, with one loss and a draw in the two matches it has played in this season's ISL.

The club started its campaign with a 4-2 loss against Bengaluru FC and played out a bland 0-0 draw against the Kerala Blasters, a match where the Tuskers missed two golden opportunities to grab the three points.

Bozidar Bandovic's Chennaiyin FC has just played one match in the ISL against Hyderabad FC.

Despite being on the back foot for most of the match, the Marina Machans edged a 1-0 win courtesy of a  penalty conceded by Manuel Marquez's team. Vladiimir Koman converted his spotkick to earn the precious three points for his team.
