In the forthcoming Group B clash of the Kalinga Super Cup 2024, Kerala Blasters are set to go head-to-head with Northeast United on Saturday, January 20. Having suffered a 2-3 defeat against Jamshedpur FC in their last match, Kerala Blasters find themselves eliminated from the Super Cup. Similarly, Northeast United is out of the tournament, but the upcoming game provides an opportunity for both teams to vie for bragging rights.
While the overall atmosphere may be somewhat subdued for both squads, the passionate Manjappada supporters will be hoping for Kerala Blasters to conclude their Super Cup journey on a positive note. On the other side, the Highlanders, led by coach Juan Pedro Benali, aim to secure a victory that could serve as a stepping stone in their Indian Super League (ISL) campaign, set to resume after the conclusion of the Kalinga Super Cup. Despite the tournament's outcome, both teams have a chance to salvage some pride in this upcoming encounter.
