Rejuvenated by a big win in the previous outing, East Bengal will aim to preserve the momentum when it meets Punjab FC in an ISL-10 fixture at the Salt Lake Stadium here on Saturday.
EBFC, which beat NorthEast United FC 5-0 in its last match at the same venue, needs the full quota of points from its second successive home assignment to keep its aspiration of reaching the knock-out stage alive.
Having lost thrice and drawn twice in its seven appearances in the League so far, East Bengal will be looking to add another win to its previous two and bring some consistency in its performance.
