Kolkata, Nov 24 (PTI) Trailing leaders East Bengal by just three points in the Calcutta Football League, Mohun Bagan today said they would defeat their arch-rivals in Friday''s big clash to win the Premier Division meet and defend the title. "It will be a do-or-die match. We are ready. The boys are confident and I''m sure it will be our day on November 26. The big match will be the CFL decider - whoever wins on that day will virtually win the title," Mohun Bagan coach Stanley Rozario told reporters. Mohun Bagan lost to East Bengal in the finals of both the Federation Cup and Platinum Jubilee Cup in their last two encounters, but Rozario felt they were done in by poor refereeing than anything else. "Poor referee decision disallowed two goals in the Federation Cup, while in the Platinum Jubilee Cup final, we lost out in the tie-breaker which can be anybody''s game. We were not under any pressure." CFL leaders East Bengal have 40 points, three ahead of Mohun Bagan with two more rounds to go. Meanwhile, Mohun Bagan struck a three-year-deal with Saradha Group.
