East Bengal vs Mohun Bagan Durand Cup 2026 final live streaming: When, where to watch Kolkata Derby

Kolkata will host the final of the 135th Durand Cup, an Asia's oldest football tournament, where Mohun Bagan Super Giant will face East Bengal FC. The match will be held at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan. Mohun Bagan have been the most consistent side in the tournament, remaining unbeaten throughout their campaign and toppling East Bengal 1-0, a result they hope to reverse.

Mohun Bagan secured their spot in the final by defeating Jamshedpur FC in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw and NorthEast United FC on penalties in a rain-affected semi-final. East Bengal, seeking redemption, have shown defensive discipline and composure in their knockout victories against the Indian Army FT and Sporting Club Delhi.

This will be their 13th meeting in the Durand Cup final, where both teams have won five finals each against each other. Mohun Bagan, with 17 titles, would extend their record to 18 championships, while East Bengal, with 16 titles, would draw level with their rivals. The final is expected to be a tactical contest between Mohun Bagan's possession-based style and East Bengal's focus on defensive organisation and quick transitions.
