In another contest between two of the best clubs in the Indian Super League, Mohun Bagan Super Giant challenges NorthEast United FC. Let’s see what’s in store.
Mohun Bagan Super Giant faces North East United FC in the first game of a doubleheader on 17 February at Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan in Kolkata.
The hosts returned to winning ways in style, defeating FC Goa and Hyderabad FC in the last seven days to move up to third place on the points standings. Dimitri Petratos scored the winner in the (1-0) win over FC Goa, and Antonio Habas' team will look to make it a hat-trick of victories to build on this momentum.
North East United FC last played at home against East Bengal FC last Saturday. They won (3-2) to end their streak of draws and move up to sixth place in the points table. Toma Juric scored, and Nestor Albiach thrived in his role as a backup striker. They'll aim to continue their unbeaten streak, but it won't be easy against Super Giant.
Winning matches is equally important for both teams. They are looking forward to maintaining their positions, reaching higher to reach the finals. Mohun Bagan has lost one and won (3) in the last five matches. North East United FC has won (3) and lost one among their last five matches played.
Mohun Bagan’s performance at the home ground has been unsatisfactory. The team has won only one match against Hyderabad FC, lost (2) against Kerala Blasters and FC Goa, and (2) matches went to a draw.
The team has been unable to win any one of the last five matches at the foreign grounds. Last of all the five matches, two matches concluded with a draw.
Whenever both teams confronted each other in the last five matches, Mohun Bagan defeated North East United FC in every match. If you consider this statistic, the ball is likely in the Mohun Bagan’s court.
