East Bengal play their first home fixture of the AFC Champions League Two group stage on Tuesday, hosting Iraq's Al-Shorta in Kolkata.

Coach Antonio Lopez Habas confirmed long-term absentee Naorem Mahesh Singh remains out, while striker Effiong Nsungusi has yet to join the squad; Sandip Mandi is a doubt after a knock in the IFA Shield final.

Habas stressed his side must keep concentration across both halves after surrendering a lead against Al-Hussein, as Al-Shorta arrive unbeaten with their opening victory.

Dani Ramirez, scorer of East Bengal's opening goal against Al-Hussein, will again be the creative fulcrum; for the visitors, Nigerian attacker Kingsley Kuku and Leonel Ateba are the threats to watch.
