Abahani are most likely to hold on to their lead. They are not going to lose points to any of the less illustrious teams. Besides with the inclusion of Lorenzo, their striking power has improved. However, with three points for a win. I do not rule out the possibility of upsets. A defeat for Abahani will bring Mohammedans back into the race.

Mohammedans have found their rhythm from the match against Muktijoddha and look very set now. The inclusion of Kazakhov will sort out their front-line problems. However. Mohammedans defence is their weak point.

Muktijoddha is an well-balanced team and should have done better. Perhaps they are facing some organisational difficulty and lacking proper guidance. They also do not have a large number of supporters.

Youngmen's Club of Fakirerpool have proved their consistency. In the first leg. the big teams may have taken them lightly. However, things will be different in the second leg when everyone will consider them a force.

Brothers Union have failed because we got ten to fifteen per cent of what we expected from our overseas signings. Brothers possibly have no chance to go beyond the fourth position.

Jahangir of Abahani is a very promising player. So is Maksudul Amin Rana of Youngmen's.

Our referees make mistakes but I do not believe they do so intentionally. Concerned authorities should take measures to rectify the errors in post-match briefings. If foreign referees can be paid $50 (Taka 2000 plus) per match, why are local referees paid only Taka 200? How can we expect good refereeing?
