*NorthEast United look for second win, Inter Kashi play final group game* *Kokrajhar/Kolkata, August 08, 2024: *NorthEast United FC (NEUFC) take the field at the SAI stadium in Kokrajhar looking for a second successive win in Group E as they take on BSF, even as I-League side and Durand Cup debutants Inter Kashi, look to wind up their 133rd IndianOil Durand Cup group stage campaign at Kolkata’s Kishore Bharati Krirangan (KBK), against Indian Navy in a Group B encounter. The Friday (Aug 9, 2024) double-headers kick-off at 4 PM Indian Standard Time (IST) in Kolkata and 7 PM IST in Kokrajhar respectively. *All 43 matches of the 133rd IndianOil Durand Cup will be broadcast LIVE on the Sony Sports Network (Sony Ten2 HD) as well as livestreamed on the SonyLiv OTT platform* *NEUFC look to extend winning streak* The Highlanders are in great spirits under Juan Pedro Benali after their opening game victory over local favourites Bodoland FC and will look to do an encore on Friday over a BSF side that looked out of sorts when it let in five goals against Odisha FC. NorthEast players like Jithin MS and Ankit Padmanabhan combined well with the likes of Parthib Gogoi upfront and will pose a huge threat for the BSF defence which needs to get its act together quickly after their first game loss. *Inter Kashi play final group game* Varanasi based side Inter Kashi, who finished fourth in their debut I-League campaign last season, also impressed in their first-ever Durand Cup game when they held local giants Mohammedan Sporting to a 1-1 draw before going down to Bengaluru FC in their second match. They will have their hands-full against a settled Indian Navy side with experienced players, as with Bengaluru already assured of top spot in the group, Kashi will need a big win to claim second spot given they are down on goal difference to Mohammedan currently. ---- *Thanks and Regards* *Ashutosh Chandra* Senior Account Executive | SPORTSCOMM 9838190147 | www.sportscomm.in | [email protected] WOLK; Bakshi House; 40-41; Near Chiranjiv Tower; Nehru Place; New Delhi - 19 <https://maps.google.com/?q=WOLK;+Bakshi+House;+40-41;+Near+Chiranjiv+Tower;+Nehru+Place;+New+Delhi+-+19> [image: https://www.facebook.com/TEAMSPORTSCOMM] <https://www.facebook.com/TEAMSPORTSCOMM> <http://instagram.com/sportscomm_> <http://us.linkedin.com/in/sportscomm> <http://twitter.com/sportscomm_>
