Years of disappointments for some sides have reflected in their winning ratio.

As the ISL have turned seven, the Indian top flight have displayed tough competitions over the years. The fierce contest that the ISL offers, have led to memorable wins and disappointing losses. Moreover, the unpredictability of the league can also lead to surprising outcomes where a top team can lose to a struggling side.

Since the inauguration of ISL, many league heavyweights have suffered losses to struggling sides - which have helped the league to grow. Here is a ranking of all participating ISL teams in terms of number of losses of all time.

ATK Mohun Bagan - 5 losses

The Mariners had a strong first season in the ISL. The outfit is a new entity after erstwhile ISL side ATK and I-League club Mohun Bagan merged together. ATK Mohun Bagan finished second in the 2020/21 league standings while also finishing as the runners-up in the final. They registered four losses in 23 games in their maiden season in the ISL.

Hyderabad FC - 15 losses

The Nizams played their second season in the ISL after making their debut in the 2019-20 season. After a dismal debut campaign, Hyderabad FC improved immensely under Manolo Marquez in the previous season. They lost only three games, taking their total tally to 15 defeats in 38 games.

Odisha FC - 19 losses

After debuting along with Hyderabad FC, Odisha FC's second campaign in the league proved to be equally, if not more disastrous than their debut season. The Juggernauts had a season to forget, where they finished bottom in the standings and racked up 12 losses in 20 games. Their overall defeats now stand at 19 in 38, one defeat in every two games. 

Bengaluru FC - 23 losses

The Blues had a very disappointing season in the 2020-21 season, considering their track record in the ISL. The 2018/19 winners finished seventh and conceded eight defeats in 20 games. The Blues have now lost 23 games in 82 outings. 

Jamshedpur FC - 24 losses

Delhi Dynamos - 31 losses

The now-defunct side from the national capital, Delhi Dynamos played five editions in the ISL before their owners decided to shift base to Bhubaneshwar in Odisha. The outfit did not make major statements when they were part of the league and shut shop without major achievements to their name. Their overall record stands at 31 losses in 82 games. 

ATK - 32 losses

Another now-defunct side, ATK were one of the strongest ISL teams with a decent track record. The three-time ISL champions played over 107 games, losing only 32 times. The Kolkata-based outfit have now merged with former I-League team Mohun Bagan to form a new entity in ATK Mohun Bagan.

FC Pune City - 34 losses

FC Pune City also played five out of seven editions in the ISL. They were part of the league from the inaugural season and played 80 games in the competition. They recorded 34 losses before their owners decided to shift base to Hyderabad.

FC Goa - 37 losses

The Gaurs have played the most number of games in the ISL since its inception. FC Goa have played 130 matches and lost 37 of them. Interestingly, they also hold the record for most number of wins in the history of the competition with 58 victories. 

Mumbai City FC - 42 losses

The Islanders won their maiden ISL crown in the 2020-21 season, while finishing at the top spot during the league phase. The Islanders lost only five games including the playoffs, taking their total tally to 42 losses in 123 games. With the City Football Group as their new owners and a stronger squad, one can expect their number of defeats to remain low.

Chennaiyin FC - 46 losses

Chennaiyin FC
Chennaiyin FC have registered 46 losses in 127 ISL games

The Marina Machans are one of the most decorated ISL teams, even if their current form would suggest otherwise. They outfit has been part of the league since the inaugural season, winning the trophy twice. However, Chennaiyin FC have been disappointing in the past few seasons. The southerners have registered 46 losses in 127 ISL games. 

NorthEast United - 46 losses

The Highlanders have also been part of the ISL since it’s inception in 2014. NorthEast United have been underwhelming in general but their performance in the 2020-21 season caught the eyes of many. They suffered only three losses in 2020-21 ISL season, taking their total tally to 46 in 120.

Kerala Blasters - 47 losses

The southerners hold the unfortunate record of suffering the most number of defeats in the history of the league. The Yellow Army have been part of the ISL since it’s inaugural season and are one of the most passionately supported teams in India. However, their fans have been constantly let down as the outfit has never won the league - despite making it to the final on two occasions. They have recorded 47 losses in 122 games, the most by any ISL club.
