Rajshahi finished with maximum points in the 11-team league.

Rajshahi will be without the Nepalese duo Bimala BK and Dipa Shahi, who left Dhaka shortly after the eighth round concluded on January 27.

Rajshahi Stars took a major step towards the title of Women’s Football League after defeating Farashganj Sporting Club 1-0 in a crucial match at the Bir Shreshtha Shaheed Mostafa Kamal Stadium in Kamalapur on Saturday.

Shamsunnahar Jr continued her impressive run in the Bangladesh Women’s Football League, once again playing a decisive role for Farashganj.

With all 55 matches scheduled at the single venue by February 3, the league offers contrasting experiences.

The women’s league is usually held in a single-league format but Kiran informed that the federation wants to introduce the double-league format in the WFL in order to get FIFA recognition.

The absence of the Kings from the WFL means that the top-flight women's league is predicted to be even weaker, with many top players likely to remain inactive after the current year saw no women's league.
