Edo Queens remain tops in Group B of the CAF Women’s League after a goalless draw with Egypt’s FC Masar on Wednesday night.

But despite the lead into the last match day of the group, qualification is far from being assured as an earlier match of defending champions, Mamelodi Sundowns beating Central Bank of Ethiopia by 4-0 has complicated matters for the Nigerian side.

While a draw could see them through into the next knockout stage, they are meeting the defending champions, Mamelodi Sundowns of South Africa on Saturday.

Should they lose, they could crash out while Mamelodi will get six points as against four which Edo Queens currently have.

FC Masar on the other hand, also with four points but with a lower goal aggregate may likely get the edge, facing the punching bag of the group, Central Bank of Ethiopia.

Edo Queens beat Central Bank of Ethiopia 3-0 on Sunday. Mamelodi Sundowns also on Wednesday evening beat the Ethiopians 4-0. Thus, the Ethiopians are technically out and  may not present strong opposition to FC Masr.
