East Bengal FC begin their much-awaited AFC Champions League Two 2026-27 campaign on Wednesday, September 16, as they travel to Jordan to take on Al-Hussein SC at the Amman International Stadium. It marks the Red and Gold Brigade’s first group-stage appearance in Asia’s second-tier club competition since 2015, and their opening test could not be tougher — a clash against the reigning Jordanian Pro League champions on foreign soil.
Having stormed into the group stage with a dramatic 4-1 extra-time win over Kuwait’s Al-Arabi SC, East Bengal now face a Group D that also features Iraq’s Al Shorta SC and Oman’s Al Seeb Club. But first, all eyes are on Amman, where Antonio López Habas’ side will look to make an early statement in continental football.
