The 2023 Durand Cup (also known as IndianOil Durand Cup due to sponsorship ties with the Indian Oil Corporation) was the 132nd edition of Durand Cup, the oldest football tournament in Asia, and the second edition since it was supported by the Asian Football Confederation.[1] The tournament is hosted by the Durand Football Tournament Society in co-operation with the AIFF, Eastern Command of the Indian Armed Forces and the Government of West Bengal, supported by the Government of Assam.[1]

This year for the second time the tournament will be played in more than one city.[2] This will be the second season of the tournament wherein all 12 clubs in the top tier Indian Super League have been mandated to participate, along with invited clubs from I-League, I-League 2 and regional league, and teams representing armed forces.[3]

Bengaluru FC were the defending champions, having defeated Mumbai City FC in the 2022 final.[4] The 2023 IndianOil Durand Cup final saw the Kolkata club Mohun Bagan Super Giant win their 17th Durand Cup title by defeating their arch-rivals East Bengal FC by 1-0.[5]

Teams[edit]

The organization committee announced an increase in the number of teams from the previous edition.[6] 19 Indian clubs and 5 services teams, from India, Nepal, and Bangladesh will play in this edition.[7][8] This is the first time in 27 years a foreign team participates in the tournament.[9]

The teams have been drawn into six groups of four each. Six group winners and the two best second-placed sides will make the knockout stage.[10]
