The Stakes: Mohun Bagan SG
He’ll need them to be proactive to make things difficult for the Torchbearers and put on an entertaining spectacle for the fans.
A thrilling win for Mohun Bagan would not only mark another derby win, but prove that they can win trophies under Panagiotis’ guidance. A loss after such hard work, however, would be particularly gutting for the Mariners.

The Stakes: Mohun Bagan SG
They’ve won both their last two matches thanks to their heroics at the penalty shootout, allowing the Mariners to set up another mouth-watering battle against East Bengal in the competition.
However, the Greek coach will urge his side to be way more clinical in actually converting their chances against East Bengal than how they’ve acted in front of goal in the last few games.

The Durand Cup 2026 final is poised to be a thrilling battle that will see Kolkata rivals East Bengal and Mohun Bagan against each other in their upcoming clash at the Salt Lake Stadium, Kolkata on Sunday (23 August 2026).
In a repeat of the opening game of the tournament, it’ll be an intense battle between the two best teams in the tournament as they fight hard to clinch the championship and earn bragging rights for their supporters with a compelling win.
The Stakes
East Bengal FC
East Bengal aim to lift the Durand Cup 2026 title.East Bengal were able to weather the storm over the last few weeks to fight their way to earning a place in the final of the 2026 Durand Cup in their first tournament under Antonio Habas.
Now, the Spanish coach aims to be the nightmare for his former team and inspire his side to get their revenge over the Mariners for the opening-game loss. Habas will need his side to showcase resiliency and grit in defending strongly to close down the gaps for the Mohun Bagan attackers.
However, he’ll also need his players to be brave and decisive on the transitions and be able to finish off chances clinically to clinch an important win.
Getting to defeat Mohun Bagan in a Durand Cup final will be another major achievement under the early parts of East Bengal’s era under Habas, but suffering another derby loss would be a particularly bitter pill to swallow.
Mohun Bagan SG
