ISL 2024-25: East Bengal FC, Mohammedan SC aim to revive sagging campaigns in derby clash
The Statesman
|November 09, 2024
Traditional rivals East Bengal FC and debutants Mohammedan SC will clash for the first time in the Indian Super League (ISL) at the Salt Lake Stadium on Saturday, each team hoping to win the momentous 1001st match and revive their floundering campaigns.
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.
