Key Players to Watch in NorthEast United vs Jamshedpur FC

Alaaeddine Ajaraie (NorthEast United FC)

The Moroccan won the player of the season award as well as the Golden Boot trophy in the ISL this season. This is his first season in India, and he has dominated Indian football from the beginning. Once again, all eyes will be on him as he will lead the line against a top-quality team. With his pace and trickery, he will be a big headache for the Red Miners for sure. In the last game against Jamshedpur FC, he missed many chances to score and had a very poor performance.

Ajaraie will be hungry to get going and will look to help his team reach the Semi-Finals of the Super Cup. In ISL, he played 25 games in which he scored 23 goals and provided seven assists.

Javi Hernandez (Jamsehdpur FC)

By far one of the most consistently performing players in India for the last few seasons. He has led the team by example and is one of the key players in Khalid Jamill's system.

Throughout the season, he has performed well for his team and has shown his quality on the pitch. He can score, provide assists, as well as defend well when it is needed. He is a complete package, and any team would love to have him on their side. Just like last time when both teams faced, once again, he will have to deliver his best on the pitch. In 26 games, he scored nine goals and provided three assists.

NorthEast United FC vs Jamshedpur FC Prediction

Two quality teams from the ISL will face each other for the fourth time this season. This will be a close and tight fixture for sure. Both of the teams are hungry to win this competition and win some silverware. Attacking-wise, the Highlanders are a much better team, and most probably they will win this fixture.
