2. Kolkata Derby

‘Kolkata Derby’ is one of the biggest rivalries in Asia. Before the season started, Mohun Bagan AC joined hands with ATK FC and decided to play as one entity named ATK Mohun Bagan FC in the Hero ISL. Later SC East Bengal also joined the league.

ISL finally got the taste of the renowned ‘Kolkata Derby’. However, ATK Mohun Bagan FC got the double over their rivals this season.
