East Bengal will clash with SC Delhi in their second Indian Super League (ISL) 2025-26 match on Saturday, February 21 at the Vivekananda Yuva Bharati Stadium in Kolkata. East Bengal commenced their ISL campaign with a 3-0 victory over NorthEast United. SC Delhi lost their first match against Bengaluru FC by a margin of 2-0.
East Bengal, one of Indian Football's giants, are yet to have a successful season in the ISL. They are aiming to change things this season under coach Oscar Bruzon. Their newly put together squad reflects the intent as well. New signing Youssef Ezzejjari has immediately silenced doubters with a clinical brace, while Miguel Figueira added flair and a debut goal. Although East Bengal will be without Argentine defender Kevin Sibille due to injury. Anton Sojberg has arrived in Kolkata and could make his debut.
SC Delhi’s big first game in the ISL happened just a few days ago on February 15, 2026. After years of waiting for a top team to return to the capital, the club, which moved from Hyderabad, finally took the field against Bengaluru FC. Even though they lost 2-0, they didn't look out of place. They played some good football and almost scored through young players like Mohammad Aimen.
Learning from the defeat, coach Tomasz Tchorz will need to tighten a defense that will be under fire from the Kolkata crowd. The visitors are likely to play a low block and rely on counter-attacks through star signing Mohammad Aimen to catch the hosts off guard.
