Shillong Lajong FC will look to move away from the relegation zone as they face former champions Aizawl FC in the I-League here Monday.
The visitors will be looking to win this one and the next, to avoid the last two relegation spots, provided some other results in the league go their way.
Aizawl are sitting in eighth spot with 18 points from as many games and with two wins in their last four games, look safe for a mid-table finish.
They have picked themselves up and dished out some solid performances after the arrival of their new coach Stanley Rosario in the latter stages of the league.
Two players in particular, Liberian Ansumanah Kromah and local talent Mapuia, have been the pick of their players.
Speaking at the match eve press conference, coach Rozario said, "I am happy that I'm out of relegation. That is more important and so I came here and helped the team. We moved the team from bottom to up and qualified for Super Cup.
"Shillong Lajong is in the relegation zone and they will come up strong because they want points. Tomorrow's match is very important for us as it is going to be a North-Eastern derby. I am confident about my boys. They will be taking the three points tomorrow."
