How is Bangladeshi Club undecided?

There is some confusion. Either Chittagong Abahani or Dhaka Abahani. Their Premier League winner Chittagong Abahani should play directly in Group Stage while Dhaka Abahani should feature in Preliminary round like BFC because they are Federation Cup winners.
Possibly Bangladesh Football Federation needs to officially inform this to AFC. Till then AFC is listing that as undecided.

Game

Bangladesh premier league is not over yet. League will finish on 12th January. Then by the the standing and license teams will be decided.

@Game Their Federation Cup also not decided ??

Game

@munna219777 Federation cup is over in May itself. Abhahani Daka won that. League is not over yet. If Daka wins league, they will get group stage spot and runners up gets the play off spot. If any  other team wins league winner gets afc cup  group spot and abhahani will get playoff spot. (assuming  both teams pass licensing criteria)
