The two bottom-placed teams, NorthEast United FC and SC East Bengal, are set to square off against each other in Match No. 32 of the Indian Super League (ISL). The game will be held at the Fatorda Stadium in Margao, Goa. Both ISL teams have been struggling for form in the league.
While SC East Bengal are still winless after six games, NorthEast United FC have suffered four losses, including a 5-1 rout in their last game against Hyderabad FC. A string of poor results has left SCEB 11th in the ISL points table while NEUFC are just a point ahead.
In their last game, Manolo Diaz's men came away with a point against Kerala Blasters amid controversial refereeing calls.
