Abia Warriors vs Katsina United Prediction: Both teams will score in this game

Umuahia Main Stadium will host the NPFL week 14 encounter between Abia Warriors and Katsina United. The two teams have netted in each of their last meetings. How will this game unfold?

Abia Warriors' last league game was against Rivers United, and they ended on the losing end. In a game that ended 1-0, Ndifreke Effiong's lone strike in the 50th minute was the difference. However, the Abia Warriors have not won any of their last four matches, losing to Heartland and Lobi Stars, and their best result came against Enyimba. With 15 points, Abia Warriors sit 15th in the NPFL standings, scoring ten goals and conceding 15. 

Katsina United's last league game was against Remo Stars, and they won. In that game, Falou Azeez and Dawi Boslam netted for this side, and both goals came in the second half. In the meantime, prior encounters to that victory saw Katsina United go five matches without a win, losing three and drawing two. This season, the visiting team has 16 points, scored 11 goals and conceded 11, leaving them seated 15th. 

Abia Warriors have struggled so much in recent matches and will need to give a lot to win here. However, Katsina United on the road have not been too good, but they returned to winning ways the previous week, which should be a big boost for them. The two teams will have their chances here, especially with their poor defensive play. I prefer to back both teams to score, which is an encounter where the Abia Warriors should win at home.
