2022 Summer Football Calendar: Fixtures in June, July, and August

Normally, this would be the time of the year when the men’s World Cup would be taking place. Qatar’s winning bid means less football until the season resumes in August. For fans of women’s football, there will be plenty of action with the women’s World Cup taking place between 20th July and 20th August. Let’s look at where the action is expected to be!

Result of Previous Match: Dakkada FC 1 – Kano Pillars 0 (5th February 2022). 

What to Expect: The two strugglers will be facing each other with a solitary point between the 17th and 19th placed teams. With two wins in their last five, the home team will hope to get a positive result and climb up the table. Dakkada FC are in better form, having won 3 of their last five matches.
