Bayelsa United vs Remo Stars Prediction: Home advantage will be a huge one for the host

The match between Bayelsa United and Remo Stars will take place at Samson Siasia Sports Stadium as part of the third week of the Nigeria Professional Football League. Both teams come into this matchup having compiled a record of defeats against their previous opponents before this matchup. However, it remains to be seen which team will emerge victorious today or whether both will be content to settle for a draw.

Bayelsa United kicked off the 2023/2024 NPFL season with a victory over Akwa United in a match that included a total of 8 goals and ended with a score of 5-3. However, this team was unable to avoid defeat in their second game away from home, which was played against Doma United and finished in a score of 2-0 for the latter. In order for their opponent to emerge victorious from the game, it was necessary for Majalisa Andrew and Charles Tewar to score goals. Bayelsa United are currently in eighth place in the NPFL standings with three points after playing two matches, during which they have scored five goals and allowed five to be scored against them.

Remo Stars would have wanted to sustain their momentum going into week two after defeating Enugu Rangers by a score of 2-1 in the first week of competition. On the other hand, things did not go well for them in the game against Rivers United that they played in week 2; Remo Stars were defeated by a score of 2-0. The opponent took the lead in the match thanks to a penalty kick goal scored by Alex Oyowah in the 13th minute. However, their adversary won the match with a long-range strike from Andy Okpe in the 90th minute, which effectively ended the contest. Remo Stars are currently in the 17th spot in the league rankings with three points, and they will come into this encounter in that position.

In the history of the NPFL, Bayelsa United and Remo Stars have only competed against one another three times. Bayelsa United came out on top in two of the encounters, while Remo Stars prevailed in just one. During those contests, Bayelsa United scored five goals, while Remo Stars only managed to score three goals.

I believe that the team playing at home will prevail, just like they did in their prior encounters. In addition, given that both of their most recent matches have resulted in more than two goals being scored, I anticipate that this one will as well.
