NorthEast United are set to play their home game against Bengaluru FC behind closed doors at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium in Guwahati, Assam, on Wednesday.
Due to the unrest in the state, last Thursday's match between NorthEast United and Chennaiyin FC was postponed. The coach of the Highlanders, Robert Jarni, has accepted the situation and cited that the security of the people is of utmost importance.
"[I am] so sorry that we didn't play the last match. We had a huge advantage because Chennaiyin had only two days of rest.
