Preview

The Mariners, still smarting from their loss to Mumbai City FC in the ISL Cup final last season, are eager to avenge that defeat. Despite their recent success, which includes winning the 2023 Durand Cup, Mohun Bagan SG will look to strengthen their credentials for a possible ISL double this season.

Head coach Jose Molina will emphasize tightening up defensively after their disappointment in the Durand Cup final loss to NorthEast United, and with the home crowd behind them, they will push for a strong attacking display.

On the other hand, Mumbai City FC, under Petr Kratky, will seek to continue their dominance over Mohun Bagan. Historically, the Islanders have had the upper hand, winning seven of their last ten encounters.

Bipin Singh, a constant threat with four goals and two assists against the Mariners, will again be one to watch. Meanwhile, Mohun Bagan's Jason Cummings has been prolific against Mumbai, scoring in all his previous ISL matches against them.

Adding to the intrigue are two former Mumbai City stars, Apuia and Greg Stewart, who now don Mohun Bagan's colors, eager to impress against their former side. The tactical battle between both teams, featuring top Indian talents like Lallianzuala Chhangte, Anirudh Thapa, and Sahal Abdul Samad, promises a high-octane spectacle. A win in this opener could set the tone for the rest of the season, providing momentum and an early psychological edge in the race for the League Shield.
