Indian Super League (ISL) outfit ATK Mohun Bagan will square off against Maldives’ Maziya Sports and Recreation Club in their third and final Group D match of AFC Cup 2022 at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata on Tuesday, May 24.

After succumbing to a 2-4 defeat against two-time defending I-League champions Gokulam Kerala in their first match of the continental competition, ATK Mohun Bagan bounced back strongly to thrash reigning Bangladesh champions Bashundhara Kings 4-0 in their second match of the tournament.

ATK Mohun Bagan star forward Liston Colaco netted a stunning hat-trick and a solitary goal from David Williams helped the Mariners clinch a dominant victory and stay in contention for the AFC Cup Inter-Zone semi-finals. With three points from two matches, Juan Ferrando’s ATK Mohun Bagan are currently leading the points table on goal difference.

On the other hand, Maziya beat Gokulam Kerala 1-0 to secure their first win in AFC Cup 2022 on Saturday. Vincentian footballer Cornelius Stewart scored the solitary goal of the match in the 50th minute to help Maziya claim three valuable points.

Earlier, Maziya started their AFC Cup 2022 campaign with a 0-1 loss to Bashundhara Kings.

Interestingly, all the four teams in Group D - ATK Mohun Bagan, Gokulam Kerala, Maziya and Bashundhara Kings - have three points from two matches. However, only one team finishing as group-toppers will qualify for the AFC Cup Inter-Zone playoff semi-finals.

As per the current scenario, ATK Mohun Bagan need to win against Maziya in order to keep their Inter-Zone play-off semi-final hopes alive.
