Other than bagging the bragging rights of the derby, ATK Mohun Bagan will also look to extend their lead at the top of the table with a win over their arch-rivals East Bengal.

The Mariners currently a clear two-point lead at the top over Mumbai City and win in the derby will take them inches closer to the ISL League Winners' Shield.

Antonio Habas' side are in a scintillating form at the moment as they have won their last four matches scoring 10 goals. Since Marcelinho has joined them in the January window, the Green and Maroons' strength upfront has increased manifold.

East Bengal, on the other hand, have only pride to play for in this derby as they are already out of the play-offs race. They will hope to avenge their defeat from the first leg and restore pride.

The Red and Golds' last derby win was back in January 2019 in the I-League. Since then the two sides have clashed thrice where the Mariners have emerged victorious twice and one game ended in a draw.

East Bengal also have grown in strength since Sarthak Golui and Sourav Das joined the team from Mumbai City and Raju Gaikwad retired to the starting lineup after a prolonged injury period.

An exciting battle is on the cards as the old foes come face to face one last time this season. Who comes out on top after an intense battle of 90 minutes?
