V. Vishnu and Jesin TK, making it three consecutive wins in three matches of the Calcutta League campaign.[45] On 16 July, East Bengal faced Calcutta Customs at the Bankimanjali Stadium in Naihati and was held onto a goalless draw, hence dropping the first points of the campaign.[46] On 19 July, East Bengal faced Police AC and won 6–0 with goals from Jesin TK, Sayan Banerjee, P. V. Vishnu, Shyamal Besra and Aman CK.[47] On 24 July, East Bengal faced Railway FC and won 2–0 with goals from Muhammed Musharaf and Adil Amal.[48] On 9 August, East Bengal faced Eastern Railway and won 3–0 with goals from Muhammed Musharaf, Aman C.K. and Jesin TK.[49] On 12 August, East Bengal faced Bhawanipore and won 1–0 with a solitary penalty goal from Jesin TK to continue the unbeaten run and solidify the top spot in the group.[50] On 17 August, East Bengal faced Kalighat Sports Lovers Association and won 4–0 with goals from Jesin TK, Ajad Saheem T and Edwin Sydney Vanspaul, who scored a brace as East Bengal confirmed their spot for the Super-six phase.[51] On 20 August, East Bengal faced ASOS Rainbow and won 2–0 with goals from Sanjib Ghosh and Muhammed K. Ashique as East Bengal continued the winning streak.[52] On 25 August, East Bengal faced Peerless in the penultimate match of the group phase and won 2–1 with goals from Muhammed K.
