Bengaluru FC vs East Bengal FC Prediction: Bengaluru eyeing a good start

Bengaluru FC draws with East Bengal FC on the first day of Indian Super League in Sree Kanteerava Stadium, Bengaluru. Bengalurℱu would be eyeing a good start to the season. Who will win when thജe clock ticks 90?

Bengaluru FC Form

One of the most challenging seasons for Bengaluru FC ended in an utterly bleak 10th place position in the 2023-24 ISL. However, the summer transfer window has been partially redeemed with some key signings: Jorge Pereyra Díaz and Alberto Noguera will be key ones to ꦇhelp shore up both the attacking and midfield zones of the side. The signings should do the trick and get them off to a better campaign this season.

Their recent performance in Durand Cup was promising by reaching semi-finals before they lost on penalty shootout to Mohun Bagan. This fight-first sort of display under new management sh♈ows that Bengaluru FC might be returning from🉐 the doldrums after the miserably failed campaign last season.

Predicted Lineup of Bengaluru FC

Recent Form of East Bengal FC

East Bengal have not been spared their own dose of hardship times either, having finished 9th in the ISL thrice in the past four years. What they need is a turnaround this season, and that's exactly wh😼at they have in their mind with key signings like Dimitrios Diamantakos and Héctor Yuste. Their Durand Cup campaign ended in a quarterfinal loss to I-League side Shillong Laj🔯ong, who they meet this time.

Head-to-head, East Bengal carries a narrow advantage since they have taken 3 out of their last 5 encounters with Bengaluru FC without losing any at all. In these such tight matches, East Bengal has scored 6 goals𝓰, whereas Bengaluru has scored 5. So, the next clash between them is all set to be a very close maꦓtch.

Both teams are♉ eager to come back and this is going to be a tꦍhriller of a match.
