This match will be played at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata on Saturday. This is the third match of the season, which is the tenth edition of the ISL. Mohun Bagan finished third in the regular season and ended up winning the ISL. In fact, they would now look to become the first side in the history of the competition to retain the trophy. They won last season defeating Bengaluru FC in the Grand Final. With Juan Ferrando retained as the head coach and some exciting signings like Jason Cummings, Armando Sadiku as well as the Indian midfield duo Anirudh Thapa and Sahal Abdul Samad.

Punjab gained promotion to this competition after winning the Hero I-League last season. They will be keen to add a new flavour to the competition and bring their best. With an eye on the future, Punjab have retained Staikos Vergetis as the head coach for the season. All eyes will be on Luka Majcen who was one of the best players for Punjab last season. He has the likes of Juan Mera and Wilmar Jordan Gil for support. They have scored a league-high 45 goals from their 22 games in the I-League last season and all eyes will be on how they will adjust.
