The 2016 version of the Indian Super League is set to commence on the 1st of October.
Northeast United will kick things off against Kerala Blasters who will be looking for an improved showing this time around. Reigning champions Chennaiyin FC will travel to first season winners Atletico for their first game of the season.
The group stages will feature 56 matches which begin on 1st October and run till 4th December.
The top 4 teams will then face off in 2 legged semi-finals with the winners to meet in the finals on 18th December. All the football matches are set to be played at 7:00 PM.
Mumbai City FC and Atletico de Kolkata have both shifted to new stadiums for the new edition. Kolkata’s famed Salt Lake Stadium will be undergoing renovations for the U-17 World Cup and will not be available for the length of the tournament but their Rabindra Sarobar stadium is something of a fortress in itself.
After the success of the first 2 editions of the ISL, ISL 2016 promises to be a cracker.
