High stakes at the bottom: Namdhari, Chanmari eye turnaround

Ludhiana, April 16(UNI) Namdhari FC will host Chanmari FC in a pivotal bottom-half encounter in Star Cement Indian Football League 2025-26 season at the Namdhari Stadium in Sri Bhaini Sahib on Friday, April 17, 2026.
With both sides striving to distance themselves from the relegation zone, the fixture assumes added significance as the league enters a decisive phase. Chanmari currently occupy seventh place in the standings with eight points from as many matches, just one ahead of ninth-placed Namdhari, who have played the same number of games.
Chanmari have registered two wins so far this season, while Namdhari have managed one, underscoring the evenly-poised nature of the contest. Recent form, however, tilts marginally in favour of the hosts. Namdhari have collected points in three of their last five matches, including one win and two draws, whereas Chanmari have endured a difficult run, managing just one positive result in their last five outings, with the other four ending in defeats.
