Mohun Bagan kicked off the 2024-25 ISL season with a thrilling 2-2 draw against Mumbai City FC, before getting the better of North East United FC 3-2. However, last Saturday, the Mariners were thrashed by Bengaluru FC at Sree Kanteerava Stadium with Edgar Mendez, Suresh Singh and Sunil Chhetri finding the back of the net.
With four points from three games, MBSG are languishing at the tenth spot in the ISL standings. Jose Molina's side need to add more solidity at the back and the striker's haven't lived up to the expectations so far. The reigning League Shield winners need to regroup and infuse fresh energy to their attacking duo of Dimitri Petratos and Jason Cummings.
Mohammedan SC, on the other hand, earned their first ISL win courtesy of getting the better of Chennaiyin at the Marina Arena on September 26. Lalremsanga Fanai's lone goal in the first half separated the two sides in Chennai. The Black Panthers are now sitting two places above Mohun Bagan in the league table, level on points, but separated by goal-difference.
