Catch Every Update, Anytime, Anywhere
For the defending champions Kannur Warriors, they are looking to start their SLK campaign with as much momentum as possible, and there is no better way of gaining momentum than winning your first match of the campaign.
The Kannur based team will also play their first match under their new head coach Andrey Chernyshov. The Russian used to previously manage Thrissur Magic in the Super League Kerala 2025-26 season. He lead the team to a finals, despite the team having a very disappointing season before him, as they finished last in the inaugural season of SLK.
The Russian head coach’s tactical brilliance may just be exactly what the Kannur Warriors need in order to win the SLK again.
The stakes for Thrissur Magic are as high as they can be, as this match provides them with the opportunity to start their new campaign on a positive note. The team have made a lot of changes to bolster their squad & team for the Super League Kerala 2026.
Notable signings include, Henry Plazas, Sergio Gil, Suhas PM, Mohammed Niyaj K & Abdul Samad PP. After the departure of their previous head coach Andrey Chernyshov, Thrissur Magic were able to acquire the services of Spanish head coach David Caneda.
The Spanish coach has previously been a manager in Cyprus & El Salvador, and used to be the assistant manager for La Liga team Valencia CF. This match will be a big test to see if the Spaniard is a right fit for Kerala football.
As fans, we should expect nothing but entertainment from this match as both teams have a lot of stakes coming into this match. Whether or not Kannur Warriors can continue their amazing run in the Super League Kerala or Thrissur Magic exact their revenge for the 2025 Super League Kerala finals, is an answer only time will tell.
