The North East-side is aiming for a top-four finish and will seal the third spot with a win. However, Odisha’s late redemption in the league might pose some problem for the fifth-placed team.
After a thrilling 2-2 draw against Kerala FC in their previous fixture, OFC can pull off a major upset in this clash. It will be an exciting thriller as Odhisha, placed at the bottom of the table, has nothing to lose at this, while a loss for NorthEast might put them in a difficult situation. Although NEUFC boasts a strong defence, Odisha can break their defensive wall, courtesy of Diego Mauricio’s current goal-scoring spree.
