The champions head here without a win in their last two matches, and it’s obvious they’re suffering from complacency as they juggle both the NPFL and CAF Confederation Cup. They almost secured all the points against Bayelsa United on the road, but the home side levelled seconds before the final whistle.

Rivers United have won once, drawn twice and lost once on the road this season.

Rivers United have won four, while Abia Warriors recorded four victories and four games ending in a tie in the last twelve meetings. Rivers United have shown they are ready to defend their title this season as they remain one of the best visitors in the league. We are not sure they’ll secure all the points, but we are trusting them to score first here for 3.70.

We expect both sides to settle for a share of the spoils here for 3.20.

Bet on BTTS for 2.40.

Good luck!
