East Bengal FC, the Kolkata-based football club, will face Bashundhara Kings of Bangladesh in their second match of the AFC Challenge League on Tuesday, October 29. The match will be held in Bhutan at 8:30 PM IST.
East Bengal began their campaign with a 2-2 draw against Paro FC of Bhutan in their opening match. Dimitri Diamantakos scored a brace for East Bengal, helping them salvage a point after trailing 2-0 at one stage.
Bashundhara Kings, on the other hand, are the reigning champions of the Bangladesh Premier League. They have a strong squad with several experienced players, including former Bangladesh national team captain Jamal Bhuyan.
East Bengal will be looking to improve their performance against Bashundhara Kings. They will need to be more clinical in front of goal and tighten up their defense. A win against Bashundhara Kings would give East Bengal a major boost in their quest to qualify for the AFC Cup.
The match will not be televised in India, but it will be live streamed on the YouTube channel of Paro FC.
