Mumbai City will hope for more of the same this season, with an added advantage of playing on Indian soil. In the AFC Cup, Asia's second-tier competition, India will be represented by continental debutants Odisha FC and qualifying play-off winners Mohun Bagan Super Giant in Group D (South Zone) of the AFC Cup 2023-24.
