ISL: Punjab FC, Hyderabad FC Hope to End Listless Season on High Note
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|March 06, 2025
Hyderabad FC will hope to stretch their undefeated home streak to six games when they host Punjab FC for an Indian Super League (ISL) at the GMC Balayogi Athletic Stadium on Thursday.
Both these sides are not in contention for the vacant sixth spot for the playoffs. However, they will want to wrap up their campaign on a strong note, to cap off the work done so far and lay the foundation for the forthcoming campaign.
Punjab FC have a promising record against Hyderabad FC in the ISL, remaining unbeaten in three encounters, including consecutive 2-0 victories. A win in this game will mark their inaugural league double over any team in the competition's history. However, Hyderabad FC have been unbeaten in their last five home games, winning twice.
