Before the clash, take a look at Mohun Bagan and Mumbai City’s record in ISL finals:
Mumbai City FC
Despite winning the League Shield twice since its introduction, Mumbai City FC has reached the ISL final only once in its history.
In the 2020-21 season, on the back of its maiden shield title, MCFC completed a historic double by defeating ATK Mohun Bagan in the final in a thrilling fashion in Goa.

Mohun Bagan Super Giant
The rebranded ATK Mohun Bagan lost both the League winner shield and the ISL trophy to Mumbai City FC in the 2020-21 season.
Its next chance at winning the ISL trophy came in the 2022-23 season where it met Sunil Chhetri-led Bengaluru FC in the final, where ATKMB beat BFC 4-3 in the penalty shootout.

Dimitrios Petratos scored a brace for ATKMB, while Sunil Chhetri and Roy Krishna got on the scoresheet for BFC to keep the score 2-2 after extra time.
In the shootout, both teams scored their first two penalties. Alan Costa and Krishna found the net for BFC, while Dimitri Petratos and Liston Colaco were on target for ATKMB.
The turning point came when Vishal Kaith saved Bruno Ramires’ penalty. The pressure was on Kiyan Nassiri to score the next for the lead and the youngster kept his nerve to find the net. Chhetri and Manvir Singh converted their respective penalties before MCFC’s Pablo Perez blasted his effort above the bar, leading to a win for the Mariners.
