NorthEast United FC vs Bengaluru FC: Head-to-head stats and numbers you need to know before the 2022-23 ISL clash

In a clash between two bottom-half teams, NorthEast United FC will lock horns against Bengaluru FC at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium in Guwahati on Friday (January 6).

The Highlanders have lost all but one of their games in the ISL 2022-23 season so far. After their narrow 1-0 victory against ATK Mohun Bagan, it seemed like their fortunes had been turned under new head coach Vincenzo Alberto Annese. But soon after, defending champions Hyderabad FC hammered NEUFC 6-1.

The Highlanders' top 6 hopes are seemingly over but NorthEast will be eyeing to salvage their lost pride in the remaining matches.
