I-League 2022-23: Home kings TRAU take on toppers Sreenidi Deccan in key clash

IMPHAL: Despite two defeats in the last five matches, Sreenidi Deccan FC have held onto the top spot in the Hero I-League table albeit jointly with RoundGlass Punjab FC. Besides, they have won their last two ties, the last one 3-0 against Churchill Brothers. However, the Deccan Warriors will be up against a tough challenge on Tuesday here at the Khuman Lampak Stadium, against TRAU FC. The home team is yet to lose here this season, the only draw coming in the last match against Mohammedan Sporting.

The Deccan Warriors mustn't drop points at this stage if they are to keep RoundGlass Punjab at arm's length. Right now both are on 31 points, with Sreenidi Deccan ahead on goal difference. With the kind of form, his boys showed in the last match, Sreenidi head coach Carlos Vaz Pinto should not have had much to worry about. But that was against Churchill Brothers, who have blown hot and cold this season. Leimapokpam Nandakumar Singh's TRAU are more disciplined, as shown by their almost perfect home record (5 wins, 1 draw).
