Bengaluru FC vs SC East Bengal team news
Bengaluru FC
Head coach Carles Cuadrat's tenure at Bengaluru FC ended after the Blues lost three matches in a row against ATK Mohun Bagan, Jamshedpur FC and Mumbai City FC. The recent 3-1 loss against the Islanders was the last straw as Cuadrat parted ways with Bengaluru FC.
Longtime assistant coach Naushad Moosa will take charge of the side in the interim for the remainder of this year's ISL season. The Karnataka-based club will hope that they are able to smoothly transition under new leadership.
The Blues were undone by the attacking firepower of the Islanders and will hope their defence recovers from the big loss. Striker Sunil Chhetri was on target from the penalty spot and will aim to carry his scoring form ahead.
Injured - Ashique Kuruniyan
