The wait is almost over. On February 14, the 12th edition of the Indian Super League (ISL) returns with a mammoth clash at the Salt Lake Stadium. Defending champions Mohun Bagan Super Giant will host Kerala Blasters FC in a fixture that has historically defined the league’s atmosphere.
With the league expanding to 14 teams this year—including the newly promoted Inter Kashi—the stakes have never been higher. For the Mariners, the goal is a repeat of last year’s dominance, but they face a Blasters side that has undergone a massive squad overhaul during the January window.
Key Matchup:
- Jason Cummings (MBSG) vs. Milos Drincic (KBFC): Can the Australian marksman break through the reorganized Blasters’ backline?
