PREVIEW

As the rigorous and rewarding first leg of the preseason in Thailand comes to an end, Kerala Blasters FC is set to embark on the next exciting chapter of their journey by competing in the 133rd Durand Cup in Kolkata against Mumbai City FC.

The Blasters grouped alongside the CISF Protectors FT, Punjab FC & Mumbai City FC, will kick-off their Durand Cup campaign on August 1st against Mumbai City FC. This is followed by games on August 4th vs Punjab FC and on August 10th vs CISF Protectors FT.

This prestigious tournament offers a significant platform for them to showcase their talent and gain invaluable high-intensity match experience.
