Odisha FC vs NorthEast United: Build-up

Odisha FC will be eager to continue their amazing start to the season when they take on NorthEast United in the ISL 2022-23 fixture on Friday. The team will be going into the game on the back of two successive wins. The Juggernauts will play the game at their home in Bhubaneswar at the Kalinga Stadium.

Last week, the team won their home game against Chennaiyin FC in a thriller in which they clinched the match through a goal from Nandhakumar Sekar in the dying moments of the game. Josep Gombau and his men will thus look to take inspiration from that game going into Friday’s fixture.

On the other hand, NorthEast United could not have asked for a worse start to their campaign. They are the only team in the league to not have won any match yet. They have lost all of their seven games and are yet to get their first points of the season. Thus, the team will be desperate to register their first points against Odisha. With Odisha’s current form, this is not going to be easy for the Highlanders, especially at the home of the Kalinga Warriors.

To date, Odisha FC and Northeast United have met six times in ISL. Odisha have won only three games out of these six whereas NorthEast United have won two games. The remaining game ended in a draw.
