FC Goa's Jorge Ortiz and Chennaiyin FC's Enes Sipovic.

Both FC Goa (FCG) and Chennaiyin FC (CFC) will be hoping to return to winning ways when it squares off in the Indian Super League (ISL) at the Fatorda Stadium on Saturday.

 

Goa went down to ATK Mohun Bagan due to a late penalty in the last match on Wednesday. Brandon Fernandes and Jorge Prtiz, who came on as late substitutes in that game, should make their way into the starting XIs.
