Kerala Blasters FC vs Chennaiyin FC: KBFC vs CFC Dream11 Team Prediction Fantasy Football Tips for Today's ISL Match - February 7, 2023 | OneFootball

Kerala Blasters FC take on Chennaiyin FC in a Southern Derby on Tuesday (February 7) at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Kochi.

This is perhaps the last chance for Chennaiyin to make the playoffs, with their numerous dropped points costing them. They have the highest number of draws in the league (six) and those missed wins have them eighth in the points table, seven points away from sixth place. They're coming off a 2-2 draw against Odisha FC and need to start winning to keep their playoffs hopes alive.

Meanwhile, the Blasters are coming off a shock 1-0 defeat against East Bengal FC and will want to get back to winning ways at home.

Kerala Blasters FC vs Chennaiyin FC Dream11 Fantasy Suggestions

With the return of El Khayati to their starting XI, Chennaiyin have grown much stronger, and despite trailing the Blasters in the points table, this should be a close game. Both teams love to attack, so we could see plenty of goals in this game.

El Khayati, Sliskovic, Dimitris Diamantakos, Adrian Luna, Sahal Abdul Samad, Julius Duker, and Aakash Sangwan are the players I feel are must-haves for this match.

Nasser El Khayati, Dimitris Diamantakos and Petar Sliskovic would be my first-choice captaincy picks from this game.
