Boosted by the confidence of defeating a massively-rotated Mumbai City FC side, Stephen Constantine's men will be hoping to grab their first derby victory in the ISL. League's joint top scorer Cleiton Silva will be leading the Red and Gold Brigade's attacking line.

Mohun Bagan, on the other hand, will have a chance to confirm a top-four finish with a win. But Juan Ferrando's men have struggled in the league, having only won one of their last four matches. In their last game against Kerala Blasters FC, the Mariners came away with a crucial 1-2 victory.

Head-to-head

The two Kolkata Giants have previously locked horns on five different occasions in the ISL and ATK Mohun Bagan have won all of them. However, East Bengal FC will be eager to alter those numbers in their favor soon.
