Jamshedpur FC take on SC East Bengal in the [Indian Super League (ISL) on Sunday at the Tilak Maidan in Vasco. Both the teams stand an outside chance to make it to the top-four and are in dire need of the three points.

The players have not managed to sync with the tactics, resulting in the Red Miners not getting regular wins.
SC East Bengal are 10th in the standings with 13 points. They played like a unit in patches throughout the league but never seemed formidable enough to continue a winning run.
Jamshedpur FC and SC East Bengal will face each other only for the second time. The sole fixture played between the two teams was a goalless draw earlier in the current season.
New signing Boris Singh Thangjam has joined the training sessions and is expected to make his Jamshedpur FC debut as a substitute. Laldinliana Renthlei has some medical tests to do after he took a knock in his hamstring.

Raju Gaikwad is expected to replace Rana Gharami in the starting lineup. Sarthak Golui is set to be included in the Matchday squad, after having impressed head coach Robbie Fowler in training.
It was a cagey game from both teams with half chances coming for both, especially towards the end but none could break the deadlock. Apuia was extremely solid for NEUFC in the middle of the park and won the Hero of the Match.
