The new season brings along rejuvenated hopes and dreams for all the teams. However, for fans, the ISL is returning to normalcy, which means a traditional home-and-away format and most importantly, fans are back in the stadium.
The league phase of the tournament will run from October to February and the knockout phases will start in March. Unlike previous years, the knockout spots have been extended from four to six to give the mid-table clubs something to fight for till the end of the season.
