ATK Mohun Bagan started the season strongly, winning three of their first five games and losing only one. Ferrando’s team responded with three consecutive victories after their second defeat against Goa in the sixth match. This was followed by a slump in which the Mariners won only two of their next eight games, but victories over the Kerala Blasters and East Bengal at the end of the season were enough to secure third place. The Kolkata-based team defeated Odisha 2-0 in the knockout round before defeating Hyderabad 4-3 on penalties in the semi-final.

Bengaluru had a disastrous start to the season, winning only three of their first twelve games and losing eight. Grayson’s men, on the other hand, have won every single match since, representing a massive turnaround. The Blues won eight consecutive league games before defeating Kerala Blasters 1-0 in the knockout round. Then, in the semi-finals, Bengaluru defeated Mumbai City 9-8 on penalties.

ISL 2023 Final: ISL ticket FIASCO once again, travelling fans in VERY UPSET…

Speaking on the game, former East Bengal, Mohun Bagan, and India international, Mehtab Hossain said, ‘ It is very difficult to predict the winner. With both the teams going this far, it will be a 50-50 game but I would have to keep ATK Mohun Bagan ahead.’ An epic fan favourite and former Mohun Bagan Footballers Shilton Paul and Joseba Beitia also resonated to the choice. Shilton specifically spoke about the importance of Vishal Kaith and ATK Mohun Bagan’s stout defence.

His prediction was however, brightly contradicted by Flyod Pinto, former India u-20 Coach and Indian Women’s National team’s custodian Aditi Chauhan. Both of the highly talented personalities who are often seen at the every game along with the commentary, think that it might be Bengaluru FC’s turn.

Mohammedan SC Technical director and former India international Dipendu Biswas offered an analytical look out of the game. Hoping that the trophy would come back to Bengal, he stated:

“ATK Mohun Bagan should edge past BFC. If Bagan gets the early Goal we might even see a one-sided game. Whereas if the game is goalless or BFC leads in the majority of the match they might win. BFC has the character to get away with knockout games. But as a football enthusiast and former footballer, I personally want ATK Mohun Bagan to win. Bagan winning will cement Ferrando’s position for the near future. And it’s better if coaches like Ferrando stay in India. This will help Indian football to grow.”

Legendary Footballers, Renedy Singh and IM Vijayan were however, torn to take sides. Renedy Singh believes that this game would go hand in hand with ATK Mohun Bgana’s counterattack and Bengaluru FC’s resilient defence. He was quoted stating that it will be very difficult to to actually predict the winner of the tie.

Legendary Footballer IM Vijayan added on to Renedy Singh’s insight. He stated, despite this not being a single side affair, Sunil Chhetri can always make a difference as evident from the previous stages. IM Vijayan said, ” It is very difficult to say who will win it for sure, but I can say that it will not be a one-sided game, at any given time. But, Sunil Chhetri can change the game for Bengaluru FC anytime, he has the experience, thus the prowess to do so.’

While, the legendary footballer have their say, with a Kolkata team at the contention, a opionanted debate has broken down between our Bengal youngsters in the league. The Chenniayin FC contingent has also told us about their predictions- Rahim Ali, Narayan Das, Sajal Bag and custodian Samik Mitra sided with the club from their hometown- ATK Mohun Bagan. Veteran custodian Debjit Majumdar and Bengal’s State Team captain Monotosh Chakladar think it is going to be the clun from the south.
