The first semi-final of the Indian Super League will see NorthEast United FC take on Bengaluru FC in the first leg of the tie on Thursday.
NorthEast United FC just about scraped their way to the semi-final spot, but finally, they got it done. They were the fourth-placed side, and have got a really good side at their disposal, this time out. The franchise has got a legitimate shot at winning the title, and the style of football they have adopted this season has worked really well for them. Bartholomew Ogbeche and Federico Gallego are the key players of the side, and with the solidity of Jose Leudo, this team really does not have blatant weaknesses in their roster.
Meanwhile, Bengaluru FC were the side who finished on top of the table this season, just like they did last time out. They have been consistent all season long and show already that the side knows how to deal with adversities. The team has arguably the best squad of anyone in the entire league, and being the clear favourites to win it all from the start of the season, now comes the time to prove your worth. They were the runner’s up of the ISL last year, and this is their shot at redeeming themselves.
When and where?
This match is to be played at Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium, Guwahati, India. The ground has a capacity of 23,850.
