Enugu Rangers vs Bayelsa United Prediction: This highly anticipated fixture will end in the hosts’ favour

After their disappointing result against Remo Stars on the road, Rangers International will be keen to bounce back when they host Bayelsa United at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium on Wednesday. 

Rangers International suffered their first league defeat against a solid opponent. The encounter, which was one of the biggest games of the round, ended in favour of Remo Stars, who scored twice against the defending champions. Enugu Rangers were not entirely satisfied with the officials. 

The Enugu Rangers won the Premier League title last season in the most fashionable way, scoring the most goals in the division. Enugu Rangers snatched the league title from Enyimba's watch after a terrible run towards the end of the season. 

Everything worked in the host's favour as they were crowned the champions in what happened to be a three-man race. Fidelis Ikechukwu's men have produced some beautiful performances in the previous season, and we expect the same in this campaign. 

Diepreye Teibowei's men have played three games this campaign without a breakthrough. After their opening-day defeat against Sunshine Stars, Bayelsa United settled for back-to-back stalemate against Kano Pillars and Kwara United. They have found the back of the net twice this season while conceding five times. 

Bayelsa United struggled to remain in the division last season, picking up fifty points from a combined thirty-eighth matches. 

Diepreye Teibowei's men won twice on the road last campaign and shared the spoils in seven games. 

Over their previous six meetings, Enugu Rangers have won three while Bayelsa United have recorded a win and two games ending in a stalemate. Rangers International were not bad against Remo Stars, and we believe they deserved a point at least. They’ll be geared to quickly improve and get the maximum points against Bayelsa United.

We expect the hosts to get a win before the break for 1.93.

This game will produce more than two goals for 2.20.

We anticipate a win and over one goal for the hosts.

Good luck!
