The I-League league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. These two teams are placed 10th and 9th respectively.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
It's quite the trip for NEROCA when visiting Arrows as the cities are 1900 kilometers apart.
Arrows form and stats
Two I-League home games so far for Arrows, who are yet to win here. Only 0 points so far. Arrows are very eager to stop a potential losing streak, having lost their two previous games here.
Happy days for Arrows in their previous game, a I-League match away at Churchill Brothers (placed 4th) that ended with a 2-1 victory. Prior to that, an away loss at Minerva Punjab.
There will be little rest for Arrows after this match as they are travelling to Mohun Bagan for a I-League game in only four days.
Arrows has scored 1 goal so far and conceded 3 goals from 2 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
NEROCA form and stats
Still no away game victory in the I-League for NEROCA with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.
NEROCA are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 2-2 draw at Chennai City (placed 8th). Preceding that, the 1-4 home loss versus East Bengal.
A comeback secured a point in the match against Chennai City. NEROCA were trailing 0-2 but refused surrender and clawed their way back to 2-2, with B. Diarra scoring the equalizer.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the NEROCA manager G. Raikhan as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against TRAU.
It's early days yet, but NEROCA has scored 3 and conceded 4 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last four meetings between these two teams are: 0 wins for Arrows, 0 draws and 4 wins for NEROCA. Over 2,5 goals: 3 times; under 2,5 goals: 1 game.Top Goalscorers
