Live streaming details: When and where to watch SC East Bengal vs Bengaluru FC
SC East Bengal are all set to take on Bengaluru FC in the final clash of the sixteenth game-week of the ISL. The two sides, which have slim chances of securing playoff berths, will clash at the Tilak Maidan in Vasco Da Gama, Goa.
The Kolkata giants have been on a steady run lately. The resurgent SC East Bengal have lost just once in their last nine matches. They are in the tenth spot on the ISL table with 13 points from fourteen matches.
Former ISL champions Bengaluru FC's poor form has continued since their win over Odisha FC in December 2020. They have gone eight straight matches without a win. That run included five losses and three draws. As a result, the Blues have slipped to the seventh spot and have 15 points from fourteen matches.
