Having secured both the Independence Cup and the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), their sights are now firmly set on the Federation Cup. Triumph over Mohammedan Sporting Club (MSC) in Wednesday's 3:00 PM final at the Rafique Uddin Bhuiyan Stadium in Mymensingh would see them etch their name into the history books by achieving a domestic treble.
The Kings are determined to secure this historic feat. Players, coaches, and all associated with the club are yearning for victory, a moment that would solidify their legendary status. Sheikh Russell Krira Chakra stands alone as the only Bangladeshi club to have achieved a treble, back in 2012. Kings are now on the verge of replicating that remarkable accomplishment.
However, the path to glory won't be a straightforward one. While Mohammedan Sporting Club (MSC) may not have fared well in the BPL, they've displayed exceptional form in cup competitions, reaching the finals of all three this year.
Fresh from retaining the Federation Cup last season, MSC now find themselves in their first Independence Cup final. Victory over the Kings would see them keep the trophy in Motijheel. Losing the Independence Cup final after finishing second in the league adds an extra layer of determination for them. Both teams are desperate - one chasing an historic treble, the other yearning to end their season with silverware.
Bashundhara Kings President, Imrul Hassan, echoed the club's ambition: "Winning the Federation Cup is our objective.
It would be a magnificent achievement to secure a treble this season." Despite their status as the country's most decorated club, the Kings have yet to achieve this coveted feat.
