Kerala Blasters vs NorthEast United Live Streaming: Kerala Blasters will welcome NorthEast United FC at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Saturday when Indian Super League (ISL) resumes after the international break. The match will be a battle between both teams, who sit at fourth and fifth of the ISL table, to go higher up the ladder.
Kerala Blasters vs NorthEast United Preview
Kerala Blasters started the season well, notching up two wins in their first two matches against Bengaluru FC and Jamshedpur FC respectively. However, they were pegged back in their third match against Mumbai City FC, losing the tie 2-1. The match against NEUFC provides a chance for the Ivan Vukomanović coached side to turn their campaign around after the disappointing loss right ahead of the International break.
Kerala Blasters go into the game with a solid record against the Highlanders. The Yellow Army has lost just 1 of their last 5 games against Northeast United FC in all competitions. Moreover, KBFC are on a goal scoring spree at the moment, scoring at least a goal in seven consecutive matches.
NorthEast United come into the match high on confidence. The Highlanders did not have an ideal start to the ISL 10 campaign, losing their ISL season’s first match to Mumbai City FC. However, they bounced back with a thumping 3-0 win against Chennaiyin FC on gameweek two before playing out a 1-1 draw against new entrants Punjab FC. NEUFC has four points from three games so far, and sit at the fifth spot of the ISL table.
The turnaround of the John Abraham-owned team is remarkable, specially given the difficult campaign the Highlanders had to endure last season. A year ago, Northeast United FC were lagging 11th in the table with 0 points. However, their form against the Yellow Army is bound to worry coach Juan Pedro Benali. The Highlanders have failed to beat KBFC on each of the last three occasions, losing the last match 2-0 against them.
