ISL 2018 Live Score, Chennaiyin FC vs NorthEast United Football Live Score Streaming: Chennaiyin FC are the only team in the league to have not got a single point.
ISL 2018 Football Live Score, Chennaiyin FC vs NorthEast United Live Score Streaming: A winless Chennaiyin FC host unbeaten NorthEast United on Thursday. Both sides have only played two matches in the season thus far and so, it is still early days. Chennaiyin FC were beaten in their first match against their fellow 2017/18 finalist Bengaluru FC away from home.
They then turned in a rather listless performance to lose 3-1 to FC Goa at home. NorthEast United played an exciting 2-2 draw in their opening match of the season against Goa before beating ATK in Kolkata. Chennaiyin are the only team without a point now in the league and will be desperate to get off the bottom of the table.

One point. That is all Chennaiyin FC would be asking for. Just a point to get themselves going. Despite the ISL's duration being drastically longer than what was the case when Chennaiyin had won the league the first time, it remains smaller than most of the big European leagues that you might be familiar with and so getting yourself in a rut early on in the season will have a big impact on your final finish.
