ISL 2022-23 | NorthEast United FC vs East Bengal: Head-to-head stats and numbers you need to know before Match 11

After a 2-1 loss at the hands of FC Goa in their first home game of the season last week, East Bengal will travel to Guwahati to lock horns with NorthEast United FC at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium on Thursday, October 20.

Both teams come into the clash on the back of two consecutive defeats and are yet to open their accounts in the 2022-23 Indian Super League (ISL) season.

The Highlanders showed great grit and resilience against Bengaluru FC in their opening game, losing 1-0. However, in their next match against Hyderabad FC, Marco Balbul's side looked out of depth, especially in the final third, and lost 3-0.

Just 1️⃣ day to go for #NEUEBFC 😁
