Kerala Blasters FC returned home after a challenging away match against Mumbai City, where they suffered a 2-1 defeat. Now, they are gearing up to face NorthEast United FC in the Indian Super League (ISL) at Jawaharlal Nehru International Stadium. However, this encounter presents a significant challenge for the Blasters as they will be without key players like Prabir Das, Jeakson Singh, Miloc Drincic (suspended), and Aibanbha Dohling (injured).
On the other side, NorthEast United, who are arriving in Kochi following a thrilling draw against Punjab FC in the first week of October, will feature Jithin M S in their starting lineup.
As things stand, the Blasters are currently placed fourth in the ISL with six points, having secured two home wins and suffering an away loss. The Highlanders, in contrast, have accumulated four points from their three matches.
Coincidentally, both teams experienced a similar 1-2 loss to Mumbai City, with NorthEast falling short on their home turf.
