Dates | November 2020 – March 2021 |
← 2019–20 |
The 2020–21 Indian Super League season will be the seventh season of the Indian Super League (ISL), the top professional football league in India. The season is expected to run from November 2020 to March 2021 and will be hosted behind-closed-doors across three venues in Goa due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in India.
ATK were the defending champions, having defeated Chennaiyin in the 2020 ISL final. However, in July 2020, the club was merged with I-League club Mohun Bagan to form ATK Mohun Bagan. Goa are the defending winners of League Winners Shield.[1]
Changes from last season
- Each club have the option of signing a minimum of five and a maximum of seven foreign players, but unlike the previous season, there should be at least one overseas player who hails from an AFC–affiliated country.[2]
- The maximum squad size is increased as the clubs are allowed to register up to 35 players in their squad.[3]
- Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all matches during the 2020–21 season will be played behind-closed-doors across three venues in Goa.[4] The venues will be the Fatorda Stadium in Margao, the GMC Athletic Stadium in Bambolim, and the Tilak Maidan Stadium in Vasco da Gama.[5] The host venues for each team were revealed on 18 August 2020.[6]
- On 27 September 2020, East Bengal joined the league as an expansion team and thus became the 11th team in the league.[7]
