The new season brings new hope for East Bengal as they begin the 2025-26 Indian Super League (ISL) campaign with a home game against Northeast United on matchday one. This match on Monday at the Salt Lake Stadium between the ‘Red and Gold Brigade’ and the Highlanders comes with our prediction of both teams scoring goals.
East Bengal ended last campaign in ninth place in the regular season with 28 points (W8, D4, L12). They were eight points adrift of the knockout spots. Northeast finished fourth (W10, D8, L6) to reach the knockout stage but lost 2-0 to Jamshedpur and failed to make it to the semifinals.
Coach Oscar Bruzon led East Bengal to the Super Cup final a few months before this season but will have his hands full with improving after an underwhelming ISL last season.
The injury to Naorem Mahesh Singh is a concern, as it leaves him out for the first few weeks. They have an impressive squad and will look to start on a high.
Northeast coach Juan Benali led them in the last two seasons and also has a familiar squad, with a bulk of players remaining from the last campaign.
That doesn’t guarantee success though, as Alaaeddine Ajaraie, who scored 23 of the 46 goals they scored last season, isn’t playing for them anymore.

Our East Bengal vs Northeast United Prediction
Northeast have a slight upper hand over East Bengal historically, winning five and drawing two of the ten head-to-head matches so far. That said, it would be naïve to rule East Bengal out, as they seem to be pre-season favourites to challenge for the title, behind Mohun Bagan. Northeast will have the familiarity of coach Juan Benali remaining in charge, and they will look to be competitive, trying to build on the fourth-place finish from last season.
This could be an exciting match, and our East Bengal vs Northeast United prediction is BTTS.
