Group A
Remo Stars Ladies vs Edo Queens – Ikenne Showdown for Group Supremacy
Remo Stars Ladies and Edo Queens square off in a high-stakes, top-of-the-table encounter with major Super Six implications. This will be their fourth topflight meeting, with both sides vying for a stronger grip on playoff qualification.
Remo Stars, currently second in Group A, saw their unbeaten run snapped by Nasarawa Amazons but still boast a flawless home record (5/5) this season.
Edo Queens, the only unbeaten side in Group A with 26 points, are keen to extend their narrow one-point lead. Their last meeting ended 1-1 in Benin, following home wins by each team last season.
Dannaz Ladies vs Ekiti Queens – Winless Sides Eager to Bounce Back
Both teams come into this fixture desperate to end poor runs of form. Dannaz Ladies are winless in their last eight matches (D3, L5), while Ekiti Queens have lost five on the bounce.
Dannaz have managed just one home win all season, while Ekiti Queens are yet to earn a point on the road. Ekiti won the reverse fixture 2-0 and are aiming for a season double.
Nasarawa Amazons vs Confluence Queens – North Central Derby with Opposing Ambitions
This fierce North Central derby sees playoff-chasing Nasarawa Amazons host relegation-threatened Confluence Queens in Lafia.
Nasarawa have a perfect home record (5/5) and sit third in Group A. Confluence Queens, by contrast, continue their survival bid with only one win in five away games.
Nasarawa edged the reverse fixture 1-0 thanks to Shobowale Olushola’s goal and lead the head-to-head with four wins from nine encounters.
Abia Angels vs Heartland Queens – Playoff Pursuit Meets Relegation Battle
Abia Angels aim to consolidate their playoff position as they welcome struggling Heartland Queens.
The Umuahia-based side have won four of five home games, with their sole defeat coming against league leaders Edo Queens. Heartland Queens are yet to collect a single point away from home and hope to avoid a sixth consecutive road loss.
Interestingly, Heartland completed a double over Abia Angels last season.
Group B
FC Robo Queens vs Rivers Angels – Rejuvenated Hosts Face Unbeaten Giants
In Lagos, FC Robo Queens host the high-flying Rivers Angels in a clash of contrasting form.
FC Robo have bounced back from a three-game losing streak with back-to-back wins. At home, they’ve collected 10 points from a possible 15.
Rivers Angels remain unbeaten after 10 matches (W8, D2), including four wins and a draw on the road. The Port Harcourt side also lead the head-to-head with four wins from seven, including a 4-2 triumph in their last encounter.
Bayelsa Queens vs Benue Queens – Redemption Bid in Second Meeting of Season
Still in search of their first league win, Benue Queens travel to face Bayelsa Queens after halting their losing streak with a draw against Delta Queens.
Bayelsa have impressed away from home but now return to familiar ground aiming to complete the double, having thrashed Benue Queens 5-1 in the reverse fixture.
Ibom Angels vs Naija Ratels – Mid-table Clash with Super Six Implications
In Uyo, Ibom Angels face Naija Ratels in a tightly contested mid-table battle with playoff ramifications.
Naija Ratels, chasing a second Super Six berth after their 2021/22 debut, have recorded four wins, four draws, and two defeats—tied for the league’s highest number of draws.
Ibom Angels have been solid at home with three wins and a draw, though their unbeaten streak in Uyo ended on Matchday 9 with a narrow 1-0 loss to Rivers Angels.
