Vengeance on mind : NEUFC vs ATKMB



NorthEast United FC host ATK Mohun Bagan in an interesting encounter where the host plays after a long gap with fresh legs.

ATK Mohun Bagan will be keen to maintain their unbeaten run as they beat Chennaiyin FC in their last encounter. NorthEast United FC on the other hand will look to grab all three points after their win against JFC in their last match.
