Prediction: Odisha 2-1 Northeast United
Odisha’s minor blip won’t affect them too much as they have begun the season well.
The Northeast side need to maintain the form after their win last time out as they have not begun their season in good fashion.
Since Odisha have the momentum in spite the loss, we see them winning this one by the odd goal.
