NWFL Match Day 12: Edo Queens eye away win in Ekiti

 

As the battle for the Nigeria Women Football League(NWFL) title race  hots up, Edo Queens Football Club of Benin will on Wednesday evening March 3rd, 2024, face Ekiti Queens FC at the Oluyemi Kayode Stadium, Ado- Ekiti. 

In the first encounter at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin in 2023, Edo Queens humiliated the new comers to the NWFL elite  side by 4- nil. It is not enough to say that Wednesday's clash will be easy. It looks like it is going to be another tough game for the Ado - Ekiti girls who are currently fighting  to get out of relegation zone

For Bayelsa Queens they have 22 points, Rivers Angels 21, Edo Queens 19, FC Robo 18, Delta Queens 12, Remo Stars Ladies 12, Sunshine Queens 10, and Ekiti Queens 8 points. 1They might want to play the spoiler role so the Moses Aduku tutored ladies must come out bold against the host side irrespective of their fans' aggressiveness. 

Though football pundits have always described the NWFL Group B as a group of death because of the five NWFL big weights in the group. It is difficult to predict which team will eventually grab the ticket for the NWFL prestigious Super 6 ticket, because five out of seven are potential Super 6 ticket hopefuls. 

For Edo Queens fans, they believe that their Queens are stronger now having won two tough home matches in succession. There is hope for tomorrow's cracker that they have what it requires to send Ekiti Queens back to championship side where they came from.

The Oluyemi Kayode Stadium fans will be thrilled to beautiful football by the Godwin Obaseki girls from the 'heartbeat' State. While the likes of Suliat Abideen, and Goodness Osigwe, will do the damage, as the fans at home await the celebration of three away points on Wednesday.
