KOLKATA: Emami East Bengal will look to end the year on a winning note as well as record their first home victory in the ongoing ISL season when they clash with Bengaluru FC at the Salt Lake Stadium here on Friday. They will definitely fancy their chances against a side who is struggling this season, managing only three wins in 11 games so far. On the road, Simon Grayson’s men have won just one out of their six games so far.
Coming after a welcome break, East Bengal will be boosted by the fact they had defeated their rivals in their previous encounter last month. “Three wins in 10 games is not good enough, but we have assessed the performance so far and the players are working hard in training. We just need to be patient because we are on the right track,” chief coach Stephen Constantine said on Thursday.
