NorthEast United hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 11 points and a 7th position in the Indian Super League table. Visiting Jamshedpur holds 5th place with 13 pts.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
