FC Goa vs NorthEast United, ISL 2019-20: Match Preview
The Gaurs will be looking to get back to the winning ways after their disappointing away defeat at the hands of Bengaluru FC. NorthEast, on the other hand, are winless in their last five games and find themselves relinquishing at eighth position with just 11 points from nine matches.
Goa have been prolific with the dead ball and have scored 10 goals from set-pieces. Also, they have not lost any match where they have opened the scoring. Much will depend on how Ferran Corominas, ISL’s highest ever goalscorer, performs in the opponent’s box.
NorthEast United have not had a very commendable season and will be hoping to revive their fate. Robert Jarni will hope that other players contribute alongside talismanic striker Asamoah Gyan, who is NorthEast’s highest scorer, and make their case stronger for a top-four spot.

NorthEast United FC: Jarni can hand over Uruguayan midfielder Federico Gallego his first start of the season, replacing Panagiotis Triadis. The latter had left the club following the defeat to Kerala Blasters.
FC Goa: Despite losing their last match, FC Goa are likely to play against NorthEast United with the same eleven. Lobera has always been the man who keeps his trust intact upon his players and it will be a shocker if he brings forward any changes.
