DHAKA, Bangladesh (Interstat) — Bangladesh Police will host Arambagh on Friday in a Bangladesh Premier League match at an undetermined venue, with both teams looking to rebound from recent results.

The match is scheduled for May 15, 2026. Bangladesh Police enter the contest after a 1-1 draw with Bashundhra Kings on May 8. Arambagh lost 2-0 to Mohammedan Dhaka on May 9, extending a season of inconsistency.

Bangladesh Police have shown resilience lately, with three wins, two draws and one loss in their last six matches. They beat PWD SC 1-0 on May 1 and defeated Fakirerpool YMC 3-1 on April 25. However, they suffered a 4-1 defeat to Bashundhra Kings on April 21 before drawing with Fortis FC 2-1 on April 7 and tying Mohammedan Dhaka 1-1 on March 13.

Overall, Bangladesh Police have five wins, six draws and three losses this season. They have been strong at home but struggled against top sides. Their defense has been solid, conceding only 1.2 goals per match on average.

Arambagh, meanwhile, have endured a difficult campaign. Their loss to Mohammedan Dhaka marked their ninth defeat of the season against three wins and five draws. They have been outscored 2-0 in their last two matches. Before the Mohammedan loss, Arambagh drew 2-2 with Brothers Union on April 30, then won 1-0 at Rahmatgonj MFS on April 24. Their only other win this season was a 3-0 victory over PWD SC on March 14.

Arambagh’s attack has been inconsistent, scoring just 11 goals in 17 matches while conceding 28. Their defense has been porous, especially against top-tier opponents. They lost 3-0 to Abahani on Jan. 3 and 3-0 to Rahmatgonj MFS on Dec. 6, 2025.

The two teams met earlier this season on Dec. 2, 2025, when Bangladesh Police won 1-0 at home. That result marked one of Arambagh’s few competitive performances, as they held Police scoreless for most of the match before conceding late.

According to Interstat’s game simulator, the projected final score is Bangladesh Police 2, Arambagh 1. The simulation suggests a tight contest with Police controlling possession and creating more chances.

Bangladesh Police will likely rely on their defensive stability and counter-attacking speed. Arambagh must improve their finishing and avoid early goals that have plagued them this season.

Kickoff is scheduled for 3 p.m. local time. The match will be broadcast live on local sports channels. Both teams are eager to climb the standings in the league’s final weeks.
