Today’s Dream11 Prediction will be for the dream teams ATK Mohun Bagan (ATKMB) and SC East Bengal (SCEB) in Indian Super League – 2020-21 on February 19th at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Fatorda. Among ATKMB and SCEB, the ATKMB team has higher chances to win this match.
ATK Mohun Bagan vs SC East Bengal Dream11 Preview
The rivalry between Mohun Bagan and East Bengal has lasted for exactly a century with the first-ever “derby” being played in August 1921. Now that Mohun Bagan have merged with ATK and SC East Bengal entering the Indian Super League, the rivalry has been renewed. On Friday, the new entity, ATK Mohun Bagan, will take on East Bengal for the second time this season at the Fatorda Stadium in Goa.
Earlier this season, ATKMB bested the Red & Golds 2-0 to begin a new chapter in the club’s history. But overall, East Bengal has a lead of 127-111 in 353 meetings over the last 100 years. Other 115 matches ended in draws. But considering the new entity (ATKMB), the Green & Maroons have taken a 1-0 lead.
But this time, ATK Mohun Bagan are a champion side and have continued their form taking the top spot in the league with 36 points from 17 matches. East Bengal on the other hand are struggling in their debut season, languishing at ninth place with 17 points from as many games. But even though the derby is not being played in Kolkata and the stats are heavily favouring the Mariners, it will once again be one of the most-watched football games in India. With that, let’s find out some of the biggest derby moments.
This season is one that is being conducted in strange circumstances with the bio-bubble and empty stadiums and it isn’t easy for anyone involved. But it is all part of the experience. My switch to Bengaluru FC has been challenging but also fulfilling in so many ways. It would have been nice to experience the city, its culture, the fans that I have heard so much about and to be able to play at the Kanteerava. But like I said, it has been a strange time and season owing to the pandemic and we have to take it all in. I always love collecting experiences through football and this has been a special one too.
PREDICTION:
One of the most exciting encounters in the ISL, the Kolkata Derby, is set to take place on Friday. The ‘Boro Match’ between the two fierce rivals will be held at the famed Fatorda Stadium in Margao, Goa.
ATK Mohun Bagan are the current league leaders in the ISL with a tally of 36 points from seventeen games. They have overtaken longtime leaders Mumbai City FC after winning four matches in a row.
SC East Bengal will aim for a Kolkata Derby win in their debut ISL campaign to get some consolation. The Red and Golds have had a dismal start to their ISL journey. They are languishing in the ninth position after seventeen matches with three wins, eight draws, and six losses.
ATK Mohun Bagan thumped SC East Bengal 2-0 in their last face-off and will be the clear favorites to complete the Kolkata Derby double in ISL 2020-21. East Bengal can play spoilsport if they are able to get their combination right and can convert their chances well.

Fantasy team
Goalkeeper: Arindam
Defenders: Kotal, Jhingan, Tiri, Fox
Midfielders: Pilkington, McHugh, Steinmann, Halder
Forwards: Balwant, Roy Krishna
Captain Picks
Roy Krishna: With 1 goal in just 1 game during this edition of the ISL, he is a good shot for this game.
Anthony Pilkington: He came to ISL from Wigan Athletic on a free transfer. The SC East Bengal player can be threat upfront.
2 GL captain options
Balwant Singh: The 33-year-old Indian could be a huge threat infront of goal. In the last season he played ATK and scored 6 goals.
Carl McHugh: The centre-defender is vital in this aspect for ATK Mohun Bagan. He played full 90 minutes in the last match.
