Preview: Hyderabad Vs Mohun Bagan
Hyderabad: current season has been a rollercoaster of emotions. The Nawabs struggled to score goals in the initial matches despite showing promising performances. The defeats against Bengaluru FC, Punjab FC, and Jamshedpur FC, coupled with the draw against Chennaiyin FC, had put Hyderabad FC in a challenging position.
However, the recent victory against Mohammedan SC was an entirely different turn of events for the Yellow and Black. The team’s attacking skills were on full display, and they were able to capitalize on their scoring opportunities ending up with a massive scoreline of 4-0. This win can serve as a chance for the team to continue building their momentum and improve their performance in the upcoming matches.
Mohun Bagan: have been on a remarkable run in the Indian Super League. With three wins and a draw in their last five matches, they have solidified their position as one of the strongest teams in the ISL. A highlight of their recent form has been their victories over their rivals, East Bengal FC and Mohammedan SC The Mariners have emerged victorious in both the derbies, showcasing their superiority and skill.
Mohun Bagan Super Giant will look to continue their impressive form and secure their third consecutive win in the Indian Super League when they face Hyderabad FC. A victory in this match could push them to second place in the league table, surpassing Jamshedpur FC.

About Indian Super League:
History
The Indian Super League (ISL) is the highest level of the men's Indian football league system. Administered by the AIFF and its commercial partner FSDL, the league is currently contested by 13 clubs.
The season runs from September to March and includes a 24-round regular season followed by playoffs involving the top six teams, culminating with the ISL Final to determine the ISL Cup winners. At the end of the regular season, the team with the most points is declared the ISL champions and presented with the League Winners' Shield. Until 2021–22 season, the ISL Cup winners were designated as champions but later from 2022–23 season, the champions design was given to table toppers instead of playoff champions.
Currently, the league only follows promotion in the promotion and registration processes. ISL clubs qualify for the Asian continental club competitions; League Shield winners qualify directly for the next season's AFC Champions League Two group stage.
The competition was founded on 21 October 2013 to grow the sport of football in India and increase its exposure in the country. Play began in October 2014 with eight teams. During its first three seasons, the competition operated without official recognition from the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), the governing body for the sport in Asia. It was structured along the same lines as the Indian Premier League, the country's premier Twenty20 franchise-based cricket competition. Each season lasted just three months, from October to December, and matches were held daily. However, before the 2017-18 season, the league expanded to ten teams, expanded its schedule to six months, and earned recognition from the AFC. Two of India's most historic clubs - Mohun Bagan and East Bengal, also joined the ISL. With ATK disbanding, the 2020–21 season had 11 clubs competing.
The ISL attained the sole top-tier league status from the 2022–23 season with the I-League demoted to the second tier. The 2023–24 season saw a promoted team from the I-League participating in the ISL for the first time ever. Punjab FC, as the 2022–23 I-League champions, became the 12th team in the league. The following year, Mohammedan SC joined the league as the 13th club as champions of the I-League.
Since the league's inaugural season, six clubs have won the ISL Cup title: ATK (3), Chennaiyin (2), Mumbai City (2), Bengaluru (1), Hyderabad (1) and Mohun Bagan (1).
Since the introduction of the League Winners' Shield in the 2019–20 season, Mumbai City has won it twice, while FC Goa, Jamshedpur FC and Mohun Bagan have won it one time each.
