All eyes will be on Makwada in Yola this Wednesday as Adamawa Queens prepare for a daunting encounter against an in-form Edo Queens side in Matchday 13 of the 2025/2026 Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL) Premiership.
The hosts head into the fixture knowing they must produce something special to upset the visitors, who have been one of the standout teams since the start of the second round. Edo Queens have remained unbeaten in that period and arrive in Yola brimming with confidence after a solid 2-0 victory over Ekiti Queens in their last outing.
Having already secured a convincing 2-0 win in the reverse fixture at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City, the Benin-based side will be keen to complete a double over Adamawa Queens.
They are also chasing a third consecutive clean sheet, underlining their defensive solidity in recent weeks.
For Adamawa Queens, the challenge is not just about picking up points but also rewriting history.
They have yet to record a win over Edo Queens in competitive meetings, a statistic that adds extra pressure ahead of this crucial tie.
Despite playing at home, Adamawa Queens will need to be at their very best to contain a disciplined Edo side led by coach Moses Aduku.
His team has shown consistency both home and away, making them serious contenders for a Super Six spot as the season intensifies.
Edo Queens currently occupy second position in Group A with 27 points, while Adamawa Queens sit fourth, still within reach of the top spots but in need of a strong finish to the campaign.
Elsewhere in Group A, Bayelsa Queens will face Pacesetters Queens in Ibadan, Ibom Angels host Rivers Angels in Uyo, and Heartland Queens take on Naija Ratels in Owerri. All fixtures are scheduled for 4:00 pm local time.
With the race for Super Six places heating up, Wednesday’s clash in Yola promises to be a defining moment for both sides.
The outcome of this encounter will significantly impact the Group A standings as both teams vie for postseason qualification. Fans expect a high-intensity match where Adamawa's home advantage meets Edo’s formidable momentum. This fixture serves as a critical litmus test for both clubs' aspirations in the 2025/2026 campaign.
