Among the BPL contesters this year, the two archrivals Abahani, Mohammedan and one of the successful clubs Sheikh Jamal wanted Bangabandhu National Stadium as their home venues while Old Dhaka team Rahmatganj Muslim Friend Society and Gopibagh's Brothers Union want Bir Shrestha Shaheed Sepoy Mustafa Kamal Stadium in Kamalapur as their home venue.
