Welcome to our live coverage of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2025-26 fixture between Chennaiyin FC and Bengaluru FC at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Chennai on Saturday, May 16, 2026. Chennaiyin are down in 13th place with nine points, with Clifford Miranda’s side losing three consecutive matches. However, their top-flight status is secure after Mohammedan SC confirmed their own relegation yesterday with a rain-delayed 4-0 loss to Mumbai City FC. Bengaluru, meanwhile, are in fifth place with 20 points after a 1-0 win over Jamshedpur FC. A win tonight will take them provisionally to the top spot in the table.
