#2 Mehtab Singh (East Bengal)
The teenage midfielder belonging from Khemkaran village in Punjab worked his way into the East Bengal senior team after putting in hard shifts for the Red and Golds in U-18 I-League.
Khalid Jamil likes to play him as a fullback and after trying him out in CFL, the East Bengal head coach also handed the Punjab lad an I-League debut in the last game against Aizawl FC.
Mehtab knows what it is like to score in a derby as he had netted a winner against Mohun Bagan in U-18 I-League, last year. He may not be required to do the same this time around but Mehtab would be eagerly awaiting to leave his mark on this epic clash.
