4) The current I League scenario

Bengaluru Fc have been a major force in the I League, since the club’s inception in 2013. They were champions in 2013-14, before missing out on a whisker to Mohun Bagan the next season.

A resilient Bagan, under Sanjoy Sen, seemed to be cruising towards a second consecutive I League title in 2015-16. However, after going unbeaten for 11 games, Bagan suffered an end season collapse, collecting only 2 points in their next 4 matches.

This allowed Bengaluru to claw back in, and seal a second I League title in 3 seasons. Their controversial manager, Ashley Westwood, parted ways with the team at the end of the 2015-16 season.
