NorthEast United vs Odisha FC: Head-to-Head, stats and numbers you need to know before the ISL 2022-23 contest

Odisha FC, who are under severe pressure to qualify for the playoffs, will be provided with another opportunity to break into the top six when they face NorthEast United at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium in Guwahati on Friday, February 17.

The Highlanders, on the other hand, will be playing for pride after picking up just five points from 18 games. They will be hoping to add more points to their tally as part of their Super Cup preparations. It will be an interesting encounter with both sides lurking for a victory for different reasons altogether.

NorthEast United's previous game produced an entertaining 3-3 draw with East Bengal in Kolkata last week. Apart from that result, they were able to conjure a 1-0 victory against ATK Mohun Bagan and share the spoils with FC Goa, who are looking more likely to be replaced by Odisha FC in the top six of the ongoing Indian Super League (ISL) table.

The Juggernauts, on the other hand, will enter this game with supreme confidence after beating a formidable Hyderabad FC side 3-1 at the Kalinga Stadium. Although they have blown hot and cold throughout the season, they enter the game as favorites. Odisha FC will occupy the sixth spot if they avoid defeat on Friday.
