India's premier football league. Season 12 of the ISL is LIVE — 14 teams, 91 matches, one champion. Mohun Bagan SG are defending champions. The title race runs until 17 May 2026. Bet from India with instant UPI deposits.
The Indian Super League (ISL) 2025-26 is the 12th season of India's premier football league and the 30th season of top-tier Indian football. After months of crisis — the FSDL master rights agreement expired in December 2025 with no renewal — the season was saved by AIFF and the Supreme Court of India, eventually kicking off on 14 February 2026.
Season 12 is dramatically different from previous editions. With a shortened timeline, teams play just 13 matches each (single-leg round-robin) for a total of 91 matches. There are no playoffs or cup competition this season — the table toppers are crowned ISL Champions 2025-26. The season ends on 17 May 2026 with the historic Kolkata Derby (Mohun Bagan SG vs East Bengal), making it one of the most high-stakes final days in ISL history.
Another first: ISL introduces relegation for the first time. The bottom-placed team will be relegated to the Indian Football League (IFL, formerly I-League), fully connecting the Indian football pyramid. This adds huge pressure to bottom-half teams in every match. 14 teams compete, including two new sides — Inter Kashi FC (promoted from IFL) and Churchill Brothers from Goa.
