Mohun Bagan Super Giant FC (MBSG) go up against NorthEast United FC (NEUFC) in the first game of a doubleheader on Saturday, February 17, at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan in Kolkata.
The hosts have returned to winning ways in style, beating FC Goa and Hyderabad FC in the span of the last seven days, moving to third on the points table on the back of those results. Dimitri Petratos scored the winner in the 1-0 win against FC Goa, and Antonio Habas' side will want to make it a hat-trick of wins to build on this momentum.
NorthEast United FC were last in action at home against East Bengal FC last Saturday. They recorded a stellar 3-2 win to break their run of draws and move up to seventh place on the points table. Striker Toma Juric netted, with Nestor Albiach also enjoying his role playing off the No. 9. They'll want to maintain their unbeaten run, although it won't be easy against MBSG.
