The Red and Gold Brigade are hoping to seal the CFL championship and set a hepta record.

Mohun Bagan decided not to play the Kolkata Derby and East Bengal got a walk over which ensured the hepta league win.

East Bengal FC played the final against Three Star Club (Nepal) where they lost 1–2 in extra time.

The club roped in Haitian Wedson Anselme from Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club Bangladesh and Willis Plaza from Trinidad and Tobago to strengthen the forward line along with Robin Singh, Jackichand Singh, Thongkhosiem Haokip, Rowllin Borges and Romeo Fernandes to strengthen the squad.

Vineeth but East Bengal rallied from behind to win it 2–1 with the goals scored by Ivan Bukenya and Robin Singh.

East Bengal continued their winning streak and won 6 games on the trot to lead the league table.

The team looked out of shape and confidence when they faced Bengaluru FC away on 25 February at Sree Kanteerava Stadium.

However, East Bengal turned all predictions aside and won the match 3–1 thanks to a brace from Robin Singh and a wonder strike from Wedson Anselme.
