Kolkata Derby dates out as East Bengal, Mohun Bagan & Mohammedan Sporting renew rivalries

The Indian Super League (ISL) has unveiled a portion of its schedule for the upcoming season, set to begin on September 13. Among the highly anticipated clashes are the Kolkata Derbies, a historic rivalry that has captivated fans for decades. It has become an integral part of football not just in Kolkata but in entire India!

Mohun Bagan to kickstart ISL 2024-25!

The defending ISL Shield champions, Mohun Bagan, will kick off their campaign at home against Mumbai City FC. East Bengal, on the other hand, will start their season away from home, facing Bengaluru FC and Kerala Blasters FC. However, the real fireworks are expected to begin in October, when the two Kolkata giants will lock horns in the first of their three clashes this season.

Adding another layer of excitement to the rivalry is the inclusion of Mohammedan Sporting Club, who qualified for the ISL by winning the I League. The Kishore Bharati Krirangan Stadium will host all of Mohammedan SC’s home games. Founded in 1891, Mohammedan Sporting is one of India’s oldest football clubs and their participation will undoubtedly add to the intensity of the Kolkata Derbies. Well, it looks like, the City of Joy will be divided into three halves during the highly packed ISL season!
