NorthEast United vs Mohun Bagan Preview

Reaching the top of the ISL league table and doing well in the AFC Cup were the two main goals the Juan Ferrando-coached team set out to accomplish this season. For them thus far, these two campaigns have been like chalk and cheese. On the domestic front, they started off with five wins in a row, the best record after these numbers of games for any team in ISL history.

They ended the campaign early because they were unable to place in the top two in an AFC group that included Odisha FC. On the other hand, the latter can assist them in combining all of their assets at the league level, particularly if they are plagued by player shortages.

In their last four meetings, NorthEast United FC has lost twice and drawn once. Having played one more game than the Highlanders, they are two points behind Chennaiyin FC, who are in sixth position. Given how fierce the rivalry is becoming in the middle of the table, Juan Pedro Benali's first objective right now should be to prevent their season from collapsing. It's never simple to play against the very competitive Mohun Bagan Super Giant squad, but they have to face more difficult obstacles to win.
