Attack

Striker: Marcelo Pereira

Marcelo has been on a fine run of form

Delhi too are unbeaten after a week and the majority of that is due to Pereira’s exploits as a striker for the Dynamos. He scored a stunning brace against Chennai and completely terrorised their defence. His ability to create spaces for his teammates is the major reason Delhi are doing as well as they are this season.

Striker: Emiliano Alfaro

Alfaro has added a new dimension to North East’s attack

Alfaro has been North East United's talisman in their three games and he has already scored two goals. His performance against Goa, in particular, was absolutely outstanding. Alfaro has been crucial to their success not just because of his finishing skills but also because of his ability to stretch defences and also with his immense work rate.
