ISL: Mumbai City FC, East Bengal FC aim to stay afloat in race for playoffs
January 31, 2025
|The Statesman Bhubaneswar
Mumbai City FC and East Bengal FC will keen to retain their recent good form when they meet for an Indian Super League (ISL) clash at the Mumbai Football Arena on Friday.
The hosts must be pleased at returning to winning ways with a 3-0 triumph against Mohammedan SC last week. They will aim to extend that stretch and stay amongst the playoff spots, since the team is currently placed sixth with 27 points on the back of seven victories and six draws.
The Petr Kratky-coached side has a chance to do a league double for the second time over the Red & Gold Brigade, having won the reverse fixture by 3-2 previously. However, Mumbai City FC haven't beaten them at home in the competition, even being unable to find the back of the net in both of their previous encounters against the Kolkata-based side in this stadium, losing and drawing once each.
East Bengal FC, however, have struggled to find their feet on the road this season. They have won just once in their last eight away games, drawing once and losing six times. Their last two away matches have given them 0-1 results against them.

As Bihar heads to the polls...
Electors in Bihar will carry their own dreams and those of candidates and political parties as they walk to booths in 121 assembly constituencies on Thursday morning. Election managers have meanwhile shifted gear from a three-month grueling phase of Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls to the hardcore routine of the conduct of polls - logistics, law and order, rebooting of their surgical methods and of course enforcement of the vexing model code of conduct (MCC).

Where the Moon sails the river
n Kartika Purnima, when the full moon spills itself over the Mahanadi and its sister rivers, Odisha becomes a single long, luminous sigh. The night is at once festival and elegy: lamps drift like small stars, miniature boats glide like secret letters, and the water takes the moon’s light and keeps itas memory. Here the celestial, the domestic, and the maritime fold into one another - the moon a silent witness, the river a courier, the boat a human hope set afloat.
