ISL sides Chennaiyin FC and NorthEast United FC will cross swords in Match No. 98 of the 2020-21 season. The game will be played at the GMC Stadium in Bambolim, Goa.
Both teams played out a goalless draw in their previous meeting. However, much has changed since that encounter.
NorthEast United FC sacked their coach Gerard Nus, and former I-League-winning manager Khalid Jamil is at the helm now. The Highlanders have stayed unbeaten under his tutelage, with victories over Mumbai City FC and ATK Mohun Bagan.
Chennaiyin FC's problems upfront with respect to scoring goals haven't seen a solution so far. The Marina Machans have scored the lowest number of goals (13) this season.
