- Competition: ISL

- Venue: Salt Lake Stadium
Hyderabad will be looking to keep their ISL title hopes alive when they make the trip to Salt Lake to face ninth-placed East Bengal.
The visitors had the chance to make it six league wins in a row, but it took them until the 87th minute to get the equaliser in the 1-1 draw with Chennaiyin last time out. That draw has widened the gap between them and league leaders Mumbai City to four points, but a win here would put them back in the race. And considering they've won each of their last three away games by a combined score of 9-2, a win for Manolo Márquez's men is very likely.
Meanwhile, East Bengal will be looking to get back on track after two defeats in a row. Showing how poor Stephen Constantine's side's defense has been of late, the defeat to Jamshedpur last time out was their fifth straight game in which they have conceded at least two goals. On top of that, they've lost five of their last six home games, which makes it very unlikely that they will return to winning ways on Friday.
East Bengal vs Hyderabad FC Betting Tips: Away win
Despite winning only two of their last seven games, East Bengal have averaged a goal per game during that period, which is why we expect them to score at least one.
However, their defense, which is one of the weakest in the league, is unlikely to prevent a third straight defeat against Hyderabad.
- Best Tip: Away win

East Bengal Team News
After two straight losses in the league, East Bengals head coach Stephen Constantine will be pondering his starting eleven ahead of this game.
Cleiton Silva has been in the form of his life this season, scoring four goals in the last three games alone, and leads the race for the golden with nine.
The 35-year-old should once again keep his place in the forward line, while Suvam Sen will hope to get another start between the posts.

Cleiton Silva
Hyderabad FC Team News
Hyderabad midfielder Hitesh Shama had to be substituted at halftime in the 1-1 draw with Chennaiyin due to a knock, and the 25-year-old remains questionable for this match.
Bartholomew Ogbeche is just one goal behind Cleiton Silva, who leads the race for the Golden Boot in the ISL this season, and will retain his role as number ten, while Sahil Tavora and Abdul Rabeeh will hope to feature in midfield.
