SC East Bengal Schedule for ISL 2021–22: Check Out Timetable With Timings & Venue Details of the Red and Gold Brigade
The Kolkata club would aim to bounce back in their second season in this competition and hope to perform better and at least secure a top-half finish. They have made some key signings in Nigerian striker Daniel Chima Chukwu and also Golden Glove-winning goalkeeper Arindam Bhattacharya.
After what can be called a disastrous debut campaign in the Indian Super League, SC East Bengal are back to make a statement and prove why they are considered to be one of the heavyweights in Indian football. The club, led by Robbie Fowler last term managed to finish ninth on the 11-team points table, securing just 17 points from 20 matches, most of which resulted in draws. With just three wins in the season, the Red and Gold Brigade did little to justify their reputation as a top season and although it is understandable that it was their debut season in the ISL, their performance was nothing short of unconvincing and poor. But they are back, having managed to strike a new deal with sponsors Shree Cement and with some smart signings, they look to possess some threat to some of the top sides in the competition.

One of their key signings have been goalkeeper Arindam Bhattacharya, whom they got from archrivals ATK Mohun Bagan. Bhattacharya was third in the list of most saves last season with 59 to his name and was awarded the Golden Glove as well. This season, SC East Bengal would be coached by former Real Madrid Castilla coach Jose Manuel Diaz. Another new signing, Daniel Chima Chukwu is one of those key strikers whom SC East Bengal would bank on a lot this season to score goals consistently.
