Chennaiyin FC vs FC Goa head-to-head
Chennaiyin FC have faced FC Goa 26 times in the league, winning nine matches. When asked about his team’s challenging record against the Gaurs, coach Coyle was quick to respond: “Good time to start tomorrow.”
“What we can affect is what’s to come. FC Goa are a very good side and they invest heavily in their team every year. That being said, we know when we are at our best. We were disappointed to lose our home game against Mohammedan, but, with all due respect, it was self-inflicted,” Coyle added during a pre-match press conference on Wednesday.
“What we showed on our travels is that we did very well in three tough games – probably should have won all three. What we want to do now is capitalise on our home games, whether it is FC Goa, Mohun Bagan, or anyone else. We are at our very best tomorrow, this is a game we can win for sure.”
