ATK Mohun Bagan will host East Bengal FC for the very first Kolkata Derby of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2022-23 season on Saturday, October 29. The two sides will square off at the Vivekananda Yuva Bharati Krirangan in Kolkata.
The Mariners registered a massive win against Kerala Blasters FC in their previous match. Given the circumstances ahead of that game, the win will provide as a morale booster for the Green and Maroon Brigade when they take the field against their arch rivals.
Meanwhile, Stephen Constantine's side were able to oust NorthEast United FC in their previous game. A win over the Highlanders will add confidence to the side who have succumbed to two back-to-back losses in the ISL.
