Odisha will look to build on their impressive finish in the last campaign when they start the 2024-25 ISL season with a home game against Chennaiyin. This match will be played at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar on Saturday, and our prediction is that the home team is likely to continue its good form at this venue.
All eyes will be on coach Sergio Lobera, who has already shown his mettle by winning the domestic double with Mumbai City. As he looks to guide the Juggernauts this season, they would want to do better than the fourth-place finish from last year.
The off-season has seen Odisha remain active in the transfer market, adding striker Hugo Boumous to their squad. His signing gives them an immediate edge, since he already had great synergy with Lobera when the duo was part of Mumbai. Odisha have also added Rahim Ali to their roster, a player who comes from Chennaiyin!
The visitors are one of the most consistent sides in this tournament history, but their qualification for the semis last time out ended a three-season wait for the same. Yet, they haven’t had the best of times preparing for the season, having lost to Odisha in the Bandodkar Trophy and also crashing out of the group stages in the Durand Cup.
It looks, at least on paper, that the Odisha side has a slight edge over Chennaiyin in terms of personnel and preparation. That could prove vital in the final analysis this weekend.

Our Odisha FC vs Chennaiyin FC Prediction
Chennaiyin are perhaps the most consistent side in the history of ISL, having reached the final of the ISL Cup three times. They did reach the knockouts last year but lost in the first knockout round. Although their preparation for this year’s campaign hasn’t been ideal, they are expected to give a tough fight in this season opener. Odisha, though, are well-placed to start with a win having won their last two home ISL matches against the Chennaiyin side. That’s why our prediction for Odisha vs Chennaiyin is a win for Odisha.
2 Goals Ahead Early Payout
More than 80 leagues and competitions are available on this football promotion from bet365. If the team that you have backed takes a two-goal lead at any point in the game, then your bet is a winner. This counts on both single bets and on multiple placed on the full time market, though of course on a multiple it is only the game in question that is marked as a winner, all the other selections still have to win as well.
A bet placed on any enhanced price is not valid for this offer, nor any bet that is cashed out. If you have partially chased out, the remainder of the stake is paid out as a winner. If your acca selection would have been a loser but for this offer then you will not gain any acca boost winnings. So for example, your team goes 2-0 up so you are paid out as a winner but the end result is 2-2, your bet is still a winner if all the other selections win but you do not gain any acca boost.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
