East Bengal vs Mohun Bagan LIVE Streaming: East Bengal are up against Mohun Bagan in the Calcutta Football League on Sunday (July 26). The arch rivals will meet at the Kalyani Stadium for the marquee clash.
Known as the "Boro Match," this clash is a cultural juggernaut in Indian football, dividing Kolkata into East Bengal's red-and-gold and Mohun Bagan's green-and-maroon legions.

East Bengal, currently eighth in Group A with five points from four matches, have had a rocky CFL start. Their recent 2-2 draw against Calcutta Customs, powered by goals from Ananthu and Lakra, showed grit, but a weather-postponed match against Behala SS Sporting stalled their momentum.
Assistant coach Bino George, standing in for head coach Oscar Bruzon, labeled the derby a "war" and will blend senior players like Debjit Majumder and David Lalhlansanga with rising stars like Sayan Banerjee
Their 2-1 win in the 2024 CFL derby, despite playing with 10 men, fuels optimism, though consistency remains elusive.
Mohun Bagan Super Giant, third in Group A with 10 points from five matches, enter with stronger form. They secured a 2-0 victory over Railway FC, with goals from Sandip and Shibam Munda, and a 4-0 rout of Kalighat Sports Lovers Association, though a 0-0 draw against George Telegraph revealed defensive cracks.
Their 1-0 ISL derby win on January 11, 2025, bolsters confidence, but shoring up the backline is critical.
The Kolkata Derby, rooted in 1921, has seen roughly 401 battles, with East Bengal narrowly leading 137-135 in wins. The 2024 CFL derby went East Bengal's way with a 2-1 upset, while Mohun Bagan have dominated recent ISL clashes. Crucial duels include Suhail Bhat probing East Bengal's defense and Sayan Banerjee vying for midfield control. Set-piece defending and composure, given past red cards and errors, will shape the outcome.
Fans can catch the match live on the SSEN app and website from 5:30 pm IST on Saturday. Additionally, for the first time, the derby will be screened in cinemas at SSR Rupasi Cinema in Agartala, Tripura, with tickets starting at ₹50, bringing the electric atmosphere to a wider audience.
