ISL 7: Odisha FC seek maiden win, NorthEast United look to bounce back



With only a point in their kitty from six games, Odisha FC will be desperate to turn their fortunes around when they face NorthEast United in the here on Tuesday.


The Bhubaneswar-based side is lying at the bottom of the table having suffered five defeats this season — the most in the league. They will face stiff challenge from fourth-placed NorthEast, who will be aiming to bounce back after witnessing their unbeaten run end in the previous game.


Odisha will need to find form soon, having struggled in both attack and defense. They have shipped in nine goals, the second-worst tally in the league, and have a tendency of conceding first — seven of the goals scored against them came in the first half.

Odisha will need to ensure they don’t let the momentum slip again in the first…
