FC Goa Lineup vs East Bengal: Will Siverio Face His Former Club?

FC Goa and East Bengal face-off in a pulsating 2025-26 AIFF Super Cup Final at the Fatorda Stadium on Sunday. Having clinched the last edition of the cup in 2025, the Gaurs are looking to become the first side to successfully defend their Super Cup crown. They are also the only side to have won it multiple times so far as Goa had won the 2019 edition of the Indian Super Cup too. This season, Manolo Márquez's side beat Jamshedpur (2-0) and Inter Kashi (3-0) before a 2-1 loss to NorthEast United, although it had little implications on their progression hopes as Goa had already sealed their place in the semi-finals by then. In the last-four, Goa beat Mumbai City 2-1 as quickfire, first-half goals from Brison Fernandes and David Timor gave them a healthy advantage at the break. The southwestern outfit are now on the cusp of creating history.

But standing in their way is East Bengal, who know a thing or two about prevailing in the Super Cup after having won the 2024 edition against Odisha. With that, the side also banished the bitter memories of the maiden final in 2018 wherein Bengaluru crushed the Moshal Bahini 4-1. After progressing through Group A unbeaten this season, the Kolkata side beat Punjab 3-1 in the semi-finals to canter into the finals, where they aim for a second title in three years. They also come up against a familiar player in Javier Siverio, who plied his trade with East Bengal for the 2023-24 season and made 10 appearances in the Indian Super League before joining FC Goa this year via Jamshedpur. Now let's delve into FC Goa Lineup vs East Bengal.
