A Strong Start from the Big Guns

The 2025 edition of the BoB Bhutan Premier League has kicked off with a bang, and the opening rounds have already given fans plenty to cheer about. Three title contenders—Thimphu City, Transport United, and Paro FC—have each started their campaign in dominant fashion, securing identical 3-0 victories. With strong attacking displays and solid defensive organization, these teams have sent a clear message: they mean business this season.

Thimphu City looked sharp and composed in their opener, converting their chances clinically while keeping things tight at the back. Transport United, on the other hand, matched that scoreline with equal conviction, showing off their depth and tactical balance. Not to be outdone, defending champions Paro FC also began their title defence in style, producing a commanding performance that reminded everyone of the quality and experience they bring to the pitch.

Sitting just behind the top three is Royal Thimphu College FC (RTC), who also collected a win in their opener. Their 2-1 result might not be as emphatic, but it showed character and the ability to grind out results—something that could prove crucial as the season unfolds. Meanwhile, BFF Academy U19 has already completed two matches, earning back-to-back draws. While they remain unbeaten, they’ll be looking to convert their attacking promise into three-point performances in the coming rounds.

With the top contenders already showing early dominance and the rest of the pack close behind, the 2025 Bhutan Premier League is shaping up to be a gripping season full of surprises, rivalries, and high-stakes clashes. If the first week is anything to go by, Bhutanese football fans are in for a season to remember.
