Mumbai City FC recovered after their loss in their opening ISL clash against NorthEast United FC and fought hard against a resilient FC Goa to clinch all three points.

Mumbai did miss their talismanic midfielder Ahmed Jahouh when he received a red card in the game against the Highlanders, however, his return will surely boost to the side's midfield.

SC East Bengal, on the other hand, come into this clash after a crushing loss against rivals ATK Mohun Bagan in the first-ever Kolkata Derby in the ISL. They lost 2-0 against the Mariners with Roy Krishna and Manvir Singh scoring.

The Red and Golds had some positives to take as Loken Meitei, Anthony Pilkington and Matti Steinman were in fine touch. They will be expecting a better performance from their attackers and coach Robbie Fowler could select Balwant Singh or Jeje Lalpekhlua in their second match in this year's ISL.
