Ahead of the game, Tuskers head coach Ivan Vukomanovic said the club will approach the game like any other. He was, however, quick to admit that Hyderabad are one of the best sides in the league.

Kerala Blasters are currently fourth in the ISL points table with 27 points from 16 games. Speaking to the press, Vukomanovic opened up about their upcoming game:

Kerala Blasters FC have a massive headache in the attacking department as Jorge Pereyra Diaz is suspended for the game after receiving a red card against ATK Mohun Bagan.

But in response to a Sportskeeda query, the KBFC gaffer said the situation doesn’t worry him and essentially opens the door for some other players to shine.

“It’s not a nice feeling in the bubble” - Ivan Vukomanovic

Kerala Blasters FC have looked like one of the most well-gelled ISL teams so far this season. Players have often talked about feeling like a family with their teammates.

Asked by Sportskeeda if this is something the coaches have worked on during these COVID-19 times, Ivan Vukomanovic said:

Kerala have four matches to go and are very close to securing a top-four spot. However, they face a stern test against Hyderabad FC, who are on top of the table with 32 points from 17 games.
