HALF TIME
An even half more or less! For all the possession Hyderabad FC have had in these first 45 minutes, they have hardly created anything substantial. NorthEast United FC have a few close chances and two shots on target but there are still no goals in this game. Their previous fixture had six goals, how will the second half deliver?
Hyderabad FC 0-0 NorthEast United FC

WHEN THEY LAST MET
Hyderabad FC and NorthEast United FC last met on January 8 in a six-goal affair with Hyderabad coming out victorious 4-2. It was that game when Liston Colaco got his brace in the last 10 minutes of the match to win it for Hyderabad after both the teams were tied at 2-2. Hyderabad had taken the lead with Aridane Santana and Joel Chianese scoring but a penalty from Federico Gallego and another goal from Benjamin Lambot right before half time make for an interesting second half. NEUFC had more shots on target but Hyderabad were more clinical with Colaco showed his mettle.
18:48 (IST)
Federico Gallego is a massive challenge for Hyderabad FC tonight and they will need to contain him. However, NEUFC coach Khalid Jamil stated that it was not about an individual and that the entire team was working hard.

Hyderabad FC and NorthEast United FC last met on January 8 in a six-goal affair with Hyderabad coming out victorious 4-2. It was that game when Liston Colaco got his brace in the last 10 minutes of the match to win it for Hyderabad after both the teams were tied at 2-2. Hyderabad had taken the lead with Aridane Santana and Joel Chianese scoring but a penalty from Federico Gallego and another goal from Benjamin Lambot right before half time make for an interesting second half. NEUFC had more shots on target but Hyderabad were more clinical with Colaco showed his mettle.
Ahead of the game, Hyderabad FC head coach Manuel Marquez praised Khalid Jamil for his work since taking over as NEUFC interim coach but said they will have their chances. "The work of Khalid is very good because it's not easy to win against ATK (Mohun Bagan), Jamshedpur (and Mumbai City) and the other day when you are twice down against Goa to equalise the game (2-2)," he said. "I think the most important thing is that Khalid gives the players confidence. They play with a good organisation in defence and have very good players in attack. Of course, we will have options to win the game if we play to our style."
For NEUFC, Federico Gallego will be crucial as he has scored 4 goals and contributed as many assists besides creating the most chances for his side. However, Khalid believes their recent progress has been down to the team effort. "It is not about the individuals," he said. "Everyone is working hard, the players are doing their job and are enjoying. Even the staff, everyone is working together. This is the main secret (to our success)." Khalid called Hyderabad a good team but said, "Our preparation will always be the same but tomorrow's (Sunday) match will be crucial."
