Chennaiyin FC vs FC Goa: All time head-to-head record

Chennaiyin FC will play their first home game of ISL 2025-26 season against FC Goa.

After four games away from home, Chennaiyin FC will return home for their debut game in the Indian Super League at the Marina Arena. Clifford Miranda’s team will face FC Goa in an early kick-off at 17:00 IST on March 22, 2026, at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Chennai.

The away team, FC Goa, is coming off a 1-1 draw against 10-man Punjab FC in their most recent clash. Manolo Marquez’s team has made a great start to the season, being unbeaten after five games, winning two and drawing three. They have conceded only two goals this season, the league’s best defensive record thus far.

The hosts, on the other hand, enter the game with a massive confidence boost after defeating archrivals Kerala Blasters FC in their last encounter.

While they had a difficult start to the season, failing to win any of their first three games, Clifford Miranda would hope to kickstart a winning streak with the club’s next five games at home.

These two teams have been involved in some of the most memorable matches in Indian Super League history. Let us take a time to reflect on the clubs’ previous history and head-to-head in all tournaments.

FC Goa dominates Chennaiyin FC historically

FC Goa has faced Chennaiyin FC 30 times in all competitions since the club’s establishment in 2014, which is the most games they have played against an ISL team. Additionally, they have won 17 of their 30 games versus the Marina Machans, their most victories against an ISL team.

Throughout those 30 games, there have been some classic matchups with a rush of goals and a lot of late drama. This specific fixture has produced 109 goals, with an average of more than 3.5 per game.

When the match between Chennaiyin FC and FC Goa is mentioned, everyone immediately recalls the 2015 ISL finals. The Marina Machans scored two goals in stoppage time to come back from a 2-1 deficit to win 3-2, winning the club’s first ever silverware.

A few years later, the Gaurs took revenge for their 2015 ISL final loss with a 2-1 win in the 2019 Kalinga Super Cup final. Other memorable meetings between the two teams include FC Goa’s thrilling 5-4 victory in ISL 2016 and their 5-0 hammering in the 2021/22 ISL season.

The most recent encounter between the two teams concluded in a 2-0 victory for the Gaurs at the Fatorda, with Iker Guarrotxena and Aakash Sangwan scoring for Manolo Marquez’s team. The two teams’ most recent encounter in Chennai resulted in an exciting 2-2 tie.
