Churchill Brothers vs East Bengal FC (CBS vs EBF) Match Preview

CBS vs EBF Match Preview: An exciting encounter awaits in the second gameweek of the 2026-27 Indian Super League (ISL) season. On Sunday, October 18 (2026), at 5:00 PM (IST), Churchill Brothers will host East Bengal FC at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Fatorda, Goa—marking their second home match of the season.

The Red Machines (Churchill Brothers) got off to a stellar start in their top-flight journey, defeating former Indian champions Mumbai City FC 2-1 in front of their home crowd in Goa—a fantastic beginning to their Indian Super League campaign.

Now, as they prepare for their second home fixture against the Kolkata giants, East Bengal FC, they will be eager to build on their winning momentum. Ahead of the new season, Churchill Brothers have strengthened their squad by bringing in several high-quality players. Head coach Dimitris Dimitriou is fully committed to making this maiden ISL campaign a memorable and historic one for the Goa-based side.

Meanwhile, following their pursuit of the ISL title and a 22-year wait to reclaim a national league championship, the Red and Gold Brigade (East Bengal) have parted ways with Oscar Bruzon. In his place, the club has entrusted the reins to the experienced Spanish coach Antonio López Habas for the new season. Habas is widely regarded as one of the most successful managers in Indian football.

Under the guidance of Antonio López Habas, East Bengal enters the fray as the reigning ISL champion, with high expectations surrounding the team. The previous season proved to be a major milestone for the Kolkata-based club, as they clinched the top-tier national league title after a long 22-year wait. Last season, the Red and Gold Brigade won 7 of their 13 matches, drew 5, and suffered only one defeat.

Ahead of the new season, East Bengal has added several new Indian players to their squad, while completely revamping their contingent of foreign players. From the title-winning squad of the previous season, Mohammad Rakip is the only player to have been retained. The current roster includes goalkeeper Prabhsukhan Singh Gill, defender Anwar Ali, playmaker Dani Ramírez, and forwards Łukasz Zwoliński, David Lalhansanga, and Edmund Lalrindika.
