However, the Highlanders are struggling at home, remaining winless in their last four home games (D3 L1), including three consecutive draws. They will need to reverse this trend to bolster their charge for a top-six finish. The last time they underwent a longer winless home streak in a single season was in 2022 when they faced five straight defeats. Hyderabad FC are entering the match on the back of a 3-2 victory over Jamshedpur FC, furthering their unbeaten stretch to three games (W1 D2). The team will be looking to bag back-to-back wins for the first time since their five-game winning sequence in the 2022-23 season. Hyderabad FC's recent scoring form, netting in each of their last three matches, reflects positivity, especially after they were unable to find the back of the net in nine of their first 14 games this season. The Highlanders are the fourth-highest-scoring team in the league, netting 31 times in 17 encounters. Alaaeddine Ajaraie has been a trump card for them with 15 goals, whereas Guillermo Fernandes and Nestor Albiach follow him with four strikes each. Hyderabad FC are the second-least-scoring team in the competition with 15 goals. Together, Andrei Alba and Allan De Souza Miranda have been the sole consistent candidates for them upfront, since they have struck thrice each - the highest in the team. Jithin MS and Ajaraie's five assists each too have been a critical component of NorthEast United FC's frontline plays. NorthEast United FC have averaged 70 final third entries per game this season, the highest in the league. The entire unit has come about cohesively to carry out their offensive plans with sheer consistency. The two teams have faced each other 11 times in the ISL, with Hyderabad FC winning six games, and NorthEast United FC emerging victorious twice. Three encounters have produced draws. NorthEast United FC head coach Juan Pedro Benali asserted the magnitude of this match for his team. "It's a final for us and we need to work hard and get the points. It's a final for them too, because they're a good team and they don't want to be down," he said as quoted from ISL. Hyderabad FC interim head coach Shameel Chembakath said that his team has taken significant confidence from their win in the last match. "The victory was a big positive for us, especially at home. However, the confidence boost that it has given us is even more important," he said. (ANI)
