NorthEast United vs Hyderabad FC: Build-up

The ninth edition of the Indian Super League (ISL) is back and running, this time with the fans in ten cities. After almost a week full of action and drama throughout six cities, the action now shifts to the North-East of India in Guwahati. Home side NorthEast United will host the defending champions Hyderabad FC in their second game of the season. Expectations and emotions are running high as top flight football returns to Guwahati for the first time since February 2020.

Luck was not on NorthEast United’s side in their opening game of the 2022-23 season. The Highlanders were denied an equalizer in the dying minutes of the second half following an error from the linesman.

They looked in good shape and asked a lot of questions to the defending Durand Cup Champions, Bengaluru FC. Marco Balbul’s side will come into their second game as underdogs. But if they maintain the same tempo as they did against BFC, you never know how things would unfold.

The defending champions gave away two points, courtesy a late second half equalizer from Mumbai City in their opening game of the season. Manolo Marquez’s side has been shuffled but still retains their ruthless approach on the pitch against other teams.

The Nizams began their title defense with an ordinary result. They will be raring to go and can take a toll on NorthEast given their strong head-to-head record against the Highlanders.
