ISL 2022-23 final Preview: ATK Mohun Bagan, one of the most decorated football clubs in India, will be vying for their maiden Indian Super League (ISL) crown when they take on Bengaluru FC in the final on Saturday. Bengaluru, meanwhile, will be setting their sights on their second title, having won silverware in the 2018-19 season after having come within touching distance the previous season, losing against Chennaiyin FC in the 2017-18 final.
