The champions put in a purely professional display. They played out a tight first half keeping the hosts at bay. The second half started in similar fashion, Bengaluru FC bossed possession and kept the Highlanders' chances down to a trickle. They took the lead in the 68th minute as Sunil Chhetri converted a penalty. In an attempt to get back level Robert Jarni completed all three substitutions in the 77th minute. However, the three points were sealed for Bengaluru FC, once Albert Serran headed home in the 81st minute. In the end NorthEast United FC tried very hard to half the deficit, but were unable to breakdown the visitors' defense.

Chance to go on top for the visitors!
Match no. 40 sees NorthEast United FC play host to Bengaluru FC at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium, Guwahati in an early kick off. Both sides come into this game having suffered the first loss in their previous match. The Highlanders will be without the talismanic top scorer, Asamoah Gyan. The hosts have found the back of the net only 8 times in the 7 games in this season’s ISL, out of which the Ghanaian has scored three goals. His absence only compounds matters for the faltering Highlanders, who last tasted victory on 6th November 2019 against the bottom-placed club, Hyderabad FC. Panagiotis Triadis, Redeem Tlang, Maximiliano Barreiro are the other goals scorers for NorthEast United FC and they will be entrusted with goal-scoring duties against the current champions. The visitors, on the other hand, will want to bounce back from their first defeat of the season. The competitive Blues, will want to take the chance to go top of the pile with a win. They’ll also want to remain unbeaten on the road. Captain-fantastic, Sunil Chhetri is their top goalscorer, having contributed 4 goals of the 9 Bengaluru FC have scored this season. Their head coach, Carles Cuadrat, believes that the current champions have the goods in the team to deliver three points. Will the Blues go to the top of the standings? Or will the Highlanders win in December? A draw will mean each side has drawn five games this season. Find out at 1800 IST.
