Hyderabad FC have already secured an Indian Super League semi-final berth, their first-ever. As things stand, Manolo Marquez's men are third in the ISL table with 35 points from 19 matches (10 wins, five draws and four defeats). But after a humiliating 0-3 defeat in the last match against leaders Jamshedpur FC, Jamshedpur will need a win before the knockouts.
For Mumbai, this is a must-win game. Fifth in the ISL 2021-22 table with 31 points from 19 matches, Des Buckingham's men not only need all three points against Hyderabad but also need Kerala Blasters to lose against FC Goa on Sunday.
Kerala are currently fourth in the table with 33 points from 19 matches (nine wins, six draws and four defeats). Even a defeat against FC Goa tomorrow will be enough for them to make the last four if Mumbai fail to beat Hyderabad tonight. A draw is not even enough for the defending champions.
Head-to-head
Mumbai City lead Hyderabad FC 2-1 in the head-to-head record with two matches ending in draws.
