Mohun Bagan vs Mumbai City FC: Live streaming, TV channel, kick-off time & where to watch ISL 2024-25
The new season of the Indian Super League is nearly upon us
The 2024-25 Indian Super League (ISL) campaign kicks off with a feisty clash between heavyweights Mohun Bagan Super Giant and Mumbai City FC at the Salt Lake Stadium, Kolkata on Friday (13 September).
It’s a repeat of last season’s ISL final, with the Mariners eyeing revenge over the Islanders for robbing them of the chance of winning the ISL double last season. With both teams eager to begin the new campaign with an emphatic win, this should make for a thrilling curtain-raiser for the new ISL season.
The Stakes
Mohun Bagan
The Mariners might’ve clinched the ISL league shield last season, but their significant ambitions will push them to finally do the ISL double this time around. They still have one of the strongest teams in the competition, with a mix of seasoned Indian players and top-quality experienced stars to give them that extra push during matches. Coming off the disappointing loss in the Durand Cup final to NorthEast United, Jose Molina will aim to mark his ISL comeback with a statement win.
He’ll urge his side to be defensively much stronger than they were in the Durand Cup and keep control of the ball. With the home support rallying them on, the Mariners should look to produce a thrilling attacking display and keep pushing at the visitors. A big win will definitely instill Mohun Bagan as early favorites for the title, while a draw can leave a slightly bitter feeling. A loss against a title rival, however, can pose more questions about the overall capability of this squad to win anything big this season.
Mumbai City FC
Petr Kratky’s side was able to produce a commendable display to silence the Salt Lake Stadium and win the ISL Cup at the end of last season. They might’ve had changes in the squad (with Apuia joining Mohun Bagan), but the Islanders still have enough pedigree in their squad to compete for top honors. Kratky will urge his side to produce a similar sturdy and efficient performance against the Mariners as they did the last time these two sides met.
They’ll look to trouble the Mariners’ on the transitions and capitalize on their defensive issues to torment them with constant, quick attacking moves. A win for Mumbai City at the Salt Lake Stadium can be the best way for them to begin their title charge, while a bad loss can be an early setback in the said title race.
