Mumbai City FC will be without the services of influential midfield pair of Paulo Machado and Rowlin Borges. Their absence is bound to affect their game plan a bit, and this is where Jorge Costa will have to come up with an effective backup strategy. Diego Carlos is set to replace Amine Chermiti in the starting eleven with a former a massive doubt due to fitness issue. Modou Sougou is a key man up front for Mumbai City, and he is likely to start as a central striker against Hyderabad rather than in the usual wide position.

Hyderabad need to sort out their defence with the likes of Matthew Kilgallon and Gurtej Singh needing to step up. Upfront Marcelinho and Bobo have not clicked as a pair, and their poor form is partly due to the poor form of their midfielders. Nestor Gordillo is an exception though in the middle of the park with some fine showing in the ISL. Another issue with the visitors is goalkeeper Kamaljit Singh is having a poor tournament, and it will not be a surprise if he is replaced. Mumbai City FC vs Hyderabad FC, Indian Super League 2019-20: Amine Chermiti, Bobo & Other Key Players to Watch Out for in MCFC vs HYD ISL Clash.
