Bengaluru FC and SC East Bengal renew rivalries as they lock horns in the Indian Super League (ISL) on Saturday at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Fatorda.

Bengaluru FC are currently placed sixth in the ISL standings. They were unbeaten in their first six games of the league before losing three consecutive fixtures. The Blues are struggling to score goals and lack creativity in the midfield.

They will be coached by Naushad Moosa, albeit on an interim basis, after Carles Cuadrat left the club following their 3-1 defeat to Mumbai City FC.

As far as SC East Bengal are concerned, they were winless in their first seven games of the season. Their first win came against Odisha FC before they played a draw against FC Goa. Robbie Fowler's side are slowly improving as the games come thick and fast, and are currently ninth on the table.
