The Indian Super League match between NorthEast United FC and Bengaluru FC, to be held here on Wednesday, will be open to spectators, the organisers announced, reversing their earlier decision to hold it behind closed doors.
The kick-off timing has also been advanced by one hour and the game will now start at 6pm.
The match was earlier supposed to be held behind doors due to unrest in the region following the passage of the Citizenship (Amendment) Bill.
"The Hero Indian Super League Match 40 at Guwahati between NorthEast United FC and Bengaluru FC is now open to spectators, with 6:00 pm kick-off," the ISL said in a statement.
"Spectators are advised to take note of the new kick-off time and plan their arrival to the stadium accordingly. Gates will be opened at 4:00 pm."
