The game will take place at the Kalyani Municipal Stadium at 8.00 PM on Monday, March 28, 2022.

Sreenidi Deccan FC head coach Fernando Santiago Valera will be facing his former side, who came so close to lifting the title last year under his guidance. “Last season was an amazing experience for me and the club.

Talking about his opponents, coach Varela agreed on his plans against the red machines. “They are a very good team with quality foreigners and Indian players. We have the momentum and we need to keep winning matches. Yes, we have our plans. We have to be ready and prepared in defense and also in offense. Our intentions are clear to get all three points,” the coach concluded.

On the other hand, Churchill Brothers are coming to the match on the back of a win against Aizawl FC. The assistant head coach Mateus Costa wants the players to perform as a team. “We have some fantastic players. The communication between the players is improving every day.

Mateus Costa is very aware of the head coach of Sreenidi Deccan FC, Fernando Varela. ” He did a great job in the last season with us. Now, he is also getting good results. They are technically very good. However, we have to focus on our strategies. Hopefully, we can all three points,” Mateus concluded.
