ISL 2024-25: East Bengal FC, Mohammedan SC Aim To Revive Campaigns Derby Clash
On a day that will see the competition touch the milestone of four-figure matches when Chennaiyin FC meet Mumbai City FC in the early evening kick-off, it is only fitting that an age-old rivalry of Indian football embraces a new shape to feature in the ISL for the first time. Both these teams, which have fought many battles in the Calcutta league and the IFA Shield for decades, have endured difficult starts to the 2024-25 season, with Mohammedan winning and drawing once in six games, and East Bengal losing all six matches so far.
They are placed 12th and 13th in the points table respectively, but with two-thirds of the season yet to be played, the teams have ample time to get their campaigns and form back on track. Will they be able to lay the bricks for their revival in this iconic face-off in the City of Joy on Saturday?
