BHUBANESWAR: Sethu FC will look to maintain their unbeatable run when they face Odisha Police in the Indian Women's League on Friday.
The local side will have a tough test facing the former champions.
Sethu have been on a terrific run from the start of the season, having defeated every side they have faced so far in the league. Such a run of form has made them a serious contender for the title.
Ahead of the next match, Sethu FC gaffer Crispin Chettri said, "Every game is different. It is important that we approach the game in the manner that we would like to play it."
Chettri believes that the side from Madurai needs to work in their transition play.
"We will focus match by match. We are still working on our transitions."
