Indian Super League Kicks Off September 13

The 2024-25 Indian Super League (ISL) season kicks off on September 13 with a match between defending champions Mohun Bagan Super Giant (MBSG) and Mumbai City FC (MCFC) at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata. Both teams aim to start their campaign on a high note, with Mohun Bagan seeking to delight their home fans and MCFC looking to maintain their strong form from previous seasons. MBSG has bolstered their squad with key signings but faces challenges in defense due to recent player departures. MCFC, the defending ISL Cup champions, have also made significant roster changes, adding new talents like Noufal PN and experienced players such as Brandon Fernandes. The match promises to be an exciting opener, setting the stage for an enthralling season, especially with Kolkata's 'Big Three'—Mohun Bagan, East Bengal, and newly promoted Mohammedan SC—competing in the league for the first time.
