ISL 2024-25: Northeast United FC vs Hyderabad FC

Preview: Northeast United FC vs Hyderabad FC

NorthEast United FC: A Season of Resilience and Challenges

NorthEast United FC, fondly known as the Highlanders, have had a mixed season so far. While they’ve shown glimpses of promise, there’s no denying that they could have performed better. As of 2025, the team is yet to secure a win, with their last four matches ending in draws. Under the guidance of coach Juan Pedro Benali, the team has displayed a strong defensive mindset, making it tough for opponents to break through. However, their struggles in scoring goals have been a major setback. This lack of firepower has kept them hovering at the edge of the top six in the league standings. With the playoffs in sight, the Highlanders cannot afford any more slip-ups if they want to keep their dreams alive.

Hyderabad FC: A Season of Ups and Downs

On the other side of the pitch, Hyderabad FC’s journey this season has been a rollercoaster ride. Currently sitting in 12th place, their chances of making it to the playoffs seem slim. It’s been a challenging season for the Nizams, with struggles in several key areas. Their defense, in particular, has been a cause for concern, as they’ve conceded a league-high 33 goals so far. This shaky backline has often left them vulnerable against stronger opponents. However, there’s a silver lining—their recent victory against Jamshedpur FC at home has given the team a much-needed boost in morale. Can they build on this momentum and turn their season around? Only time will tell.
