Live streaming, AFC Champions League Two 2024-25: Where to watch Mohun Bagan - schedule, teams and groups

India’s Mohun Bagan Super Giant will kick off their campaign in the inaugural AFC Champions League Two 2024-25 against FC Ravshan of Tajikistan at the iconic Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata on Wednesday.

All Mohun Bagan Super Giant matches in the AFC Champions League Two (ACL Two) will be available on live streaming and telecast in India.

The ACL Two, previously known as the AFC Cup, is Asia’s second-tier club football competition organised by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC). The format of the competition has also changed.

The ACL Two will see teams divided into two zones - East and West. Previously, the teams were split into five zones - ASEAN, East, West, Central and South.

The 32 teams are now divided into eight groups and will follow a home-and-away format. Groups A to D comprise teams from the West Region while Groups E to H will have teams from the East region. The group stages will be held between September 17 and December 5.

Mohun Bagan Super Giant, the Indian Super League 2023-24 Shield winners, are in Group A alongside Qatar's Al Wakrah SC, Islamic Republic of Iran's Tractor SC and Tajikistan's FC Ravshan.

The top two teams from each group will then advance to the round of 16 starting in February. The home-and-away two-legged knock-outs will continue till the final, which will take place at a neutral venue on May 17.

Along with the title, the champions will also be awarded a preliminary stage slot for the 2025-26 season of the AFC Champions League Elite.

Australian club Central Coast Mariners won the AFC Cup last year. They will not compete in the ACL Two since they have automatically qualified for the AFC Champions League Elite.

Last season, Mohun Bagan finished third in the AFC Cup group stage and failed to advance to the knockout stage.
