Edo Queens are targeting their first victory of the 2025 Nigeria Women’s Football League Premiership season as they welcome Heartland Queens to the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin City, on Wednesday.
The Benin outfit are eager to recover from their narrow 3–2 defeat to Bayelsa Queens in Yenagoa on the opening day. Despite the setback, the team showed promising attacking play, and head coach Moses Aduku is expected to introduce more energy and balance as they push for all three points in front of their supporters.
Recent meetings favour the hosts, with Heartland Queens yet to claim a win over Edo Queens since the league began. The visitors, known for their physical approach, are expected to provide firm resistance, but Edo Queens remain confident of controlling proceedings with home advantage.
Supporters in Benin City are looking forward to a spirited performance in the team’s first home match of the campaign. The club’s management has been praised for assembling a stronger squad, adding quality and commitment as they aim for a return to continental football.
Positive reports from the camp indicate a motivated group determined to fight for the league title. Players have promised an improved display and are focused on moving past last week’s defeat.
Kickoff is scheduled for 4 p.m. at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium.
