With both sides boasting quality and plenty of familiarity, a competitive quarterfinal is expected in Kolkata.

Teams Preview

ATK Mohun Bagan Preview

Under new manager Panagiotis Dilmperis, 17-time Durand Cup champions Mohun Bagan have stormed into the knockouts in style, winning all three group games while scoring 15 goals and conceding none. Their toughest test came first, edging East Bengal 1-0 in the Kolkata derby before dismantling South United 8-0 and CISF Protectors 6-0.

Beyond the impressive numbers, the Mariners’ set-piece threat has been a major weapon, with a tournament-high nine goals coming from dead-ball situations. That could prove decisive if Jamshedpur are to make this a tight contest. Meanwhile, Mohun Bagan will be wary of their history in the last edition, where they entered the quarterfinals unbeaten and got knocked out 2-1 by another ISL opponent.

Key Players

Manvir Singh and Sahal Abdul Samad have emerged as the Mariners’ standout performers in the campaign. Manvir has already bagged a hat-trick, while Sahal has been even more influential, registering a hat-trick of goals and another hat-trick of assists. Both currently lead Mohun Bagan’s scoring charts with four goals apiece, making them the key threats for Jamshedpur to contain.

Mohun Bagan Probable XI - Vishal Kaith (GK), Rahul, Thapa, Liston Coalco , Manvir, Bose, Sahal Abdul Samad, Alberto Rodríguez, D.Tangri, Abhimeitei, Dejan Drazic

Jamshedpur FC Preview

Unlike their quarterfinal opponents, Jamshedpur FC had to fight for their place in the knockouts after a 2-1 defeat to SC Delhi put their campaign under pressure. They responded emphatically, hammering Indian Air Force FT 6-0 to secure qualification as the second-best second-placed team. Across the group stage, the Men of Steel scored 12 goals while conceding just two.

However, their campaign has been overshadowed by major developments off the pitch. Tata Steel has sold its entire stake in Jamshedpur FC to Churchill Brothers Sports Club, ending its ownership of the ISL club. The deal also transfers control of the sporting licence, along with the player and coaching staff contracts, marking a significant new chapter for the club.

Key Players 

Like their opponents, Jamshedpur FC have several players capable of making the difference. Raynier Fernandes and 17-year-old Lawmsangzuala have both scored hat-tricks in the tournament, with the youngster remarkably finding the net three times in a 25-minute spell in the final group game. Aman CK has also been influential, providing a hat-trick of assists. These three will be among the key players to watch against Mohun Bagan.

Jamshedpur FC Probable XI - Albino Gomes (GK); Sarthak Golui, Pratik Chaudhari, Nikhil Barla, Praful Kumar, Germanpreet Singh, Raynier Fernandes, Sourav Das, Mohammed Sanan, Aman CK,  Devendra Murgaonkar.

ATK MOHUN BAGAN vs JAMSHEDPUR FC

Winning Prediction

The overall head-to-head may suggest a closely fought rivalry, but the numbers in Kolkata tell a different story. Mohun Bagan have won five of their last six meetings against Jamshedpur on home soil, losing only once. The Mariners also arrive in stronger form, while Jamshedpur are dealing with considerable uncertainty off the pitch.

With Mohun Bagan unbeaten in the tournament, boasting 15 goals and a perfect defensive record, and enjoying home advantage, the Mariners look well placed to extend their dominance and book a semifinal spot.
