Mohun Bagan vs SC Delhi: All-time head-to-head record in ISL

East Bengal are the top contender to win the league title

Mohun Bagan and SC Delhi have quite the interesting history of facing each other in the Indian Super League (ISL) heading into their clash, which will be their final games of the 2025-26 campaign on Thursday (21 May 2026). With both sides fighting for different objectives at opposite ends of the ISL table, this upcoming clash should be a pretty entertaining display for the fans.

Since Mohun Bagan entered the ISL in 2020, they have been able to play against SC Delhi on a number of occasions. Of course, SC Delhi are the team which was known as Hyderabad FC until the end of the 2024-25 campaign, with the side being re-imagined to add a new team to play in the Indian capital going forward.

As a result, fans would remember several thrilling Mohun Bagan vs SC Delhi matches to have taken place in the ISL over the years. These two sides have been involved in some dramatic, intense games that also include their clashes in the ISL playoffs as well.

Mohun Bagan are currently in second place in the 2025-26 ISL, with 23 points acquired from 12 games so far. To be able to win the ISL title on the final matchday, they will need to defeat SC Delhi and hope that East Bengal aren’t able to win their game against Inter Kashi either.

SC Delhi, meanwhile, are stuck in 11th place in the ISL table with only 11 points acquired from 12 games so far. They have only been able to win two games, but have produced enough promising football that they can win the final ISL clash to dent Mohun Bagan’s ISL hopes.

That is what sets up a thrilling Mohun Bagan vs SC Delhi clash in the 2025-26 ISL encounter at the Salt Lake Stadium.

A tale of two directions for Mohun Bagan and SC Delhi in 2025-26 ISL

In what has been a shortened 2025-26 ISL campaign, Mohun Bagan have at least been able to keep their place in the title race. The Mariners have won six of their 12 matches so far, scoring 21 goals, but they have also played out five draws. It’s the draws that have left them behind in the title race to East Bengal!

SC Delhi, meanwhile, have only gotten a few wins under its belt, and that has caused it to languish in the bottom part of the ISL table. A win, however, could definitely help their cause for a top-half finish, and that is why they’ll be desperate to cause a major upset at the Salt Lake Stadium.

There are major incentives for both Mohun Bagan and SC Delhi to win this match to end their campaign on a positive note. That is why this upcoming clash should be a pretty action-packed game that should be an entertaining watch for the fans.
