Mohun Bagan will be desperate to earn their first win of this I-League season when they face debutants TRAU FC of Manipur at the Kalyani Municipality Stadium here on Wednesday.
The Kolkata heavyweights have logged just one point from two games so far while TRAU went down by a solitary goal to defending champions Chennai City FC in the I-League opener, which was also their debut match.
Mohun Bagan went down 2-4 to Churchill Brothers of Goa in their last encounter.
The pressure was clearly evident in Mohun Bagan's Spanish coach Kibu Vicuna's pre-match comments.
"After the last match, the team wants to play to get three points. We had 71% ball possession, 27 shots, 10 on target against Churchill but we conceded so much defensively," he said.
"We need to improve and be more efficient in both 18 yards box. We respect the opponent, a new team with good players and a new coach and we need to play a complete match to succeed."
