KOLKATA: After registering a narrow 1-0 win over Bengaluru FC earlier this season, East Bengal FC will look to do a double over the Blues when two sides lock horns in an Indian Super League (ISL) 2022-23 match at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan Stadium, here on Friday. The two teams are now in a position where they could directly affect the other's playoff qualification chances -- as both teams have to do some catching up for sixth spot. With Bengaluru FC nine points and East Bengal FC ten points off sixth place, an outright result either way could be a big blow to the team that loses.
Two weeks ago, in their last ISL fixture, East Bengal FC lost 3-0 against league leaders, Mumbai City FC. It was the second consecutive one in which the East Bengal FC failed to find the back of the net. IANS
