The Owerri Boys almost got a victory away from home on matchday 33 but were denied after a horrific officiating, which cost them the three points. Heartland FC remains 19th on the log, just four points ahead of MFM FC in last place. However, a win here might push them up as they struggle to avoid relegating.

They have now won at home five matches in a row, including victories against complex teams like Plateau United and Rivers United.

They have lost twice at home this season. However, they have won ten and drawn fourteen in the last sixteen home games.

The visitors also recorded a narrow win against MFM FC on matchday 33, which helped them move five points above the relegation zone. They are not good enough playing away from home as they earned just two points from a possible forty-eight.

The home teams already secured a point in the first leg of this encounter and are tipped by the bookies to get a victory here.

Heartland FC have everything to play for in this encounter, and a loss here could be a game over for them; I believe they will get the win here; bet on a home win for 1.54.

It's an open game, and we expect goals here; bet on a home win and over 1.5 goals for 1.80.

A correct score of 2-1 for 6.00 might surface here.

Good luck!
