NorthEast United FC will square off against winless SC East Bengal on Friday in Match No. 32 of the Indian Super League (ISL) at the Athletic Stadium in Bambolim, Margao.

So far, NorthEast United FC's season has been nothing short of a catastrophe. The Highlanders have scored only four points in six games and are ranked second-worst in the league. In their six games, they have won one, drawn one, and lost four.

The red and gold brigade, too, have made an inauspicious start to the season and are at the bottom of the league table with just three points. They are the only team not to win a single game this season. Manuel Diaz's men have conceded the most goals this season, with three draws and three losses in six games.

How crucial will his performance be for the Highlanders tonight? 🤔
