Enyimba Aba vs Remo Stars Prediction: This highly competitive fixture could end either way

Two of the top teams in the previous league campaign will face off at the Enyimba International Stadium on Sunday. Enyimba, who have been nothing short of poor this season, will host the league leader Remo Stars tomorrow in an attempt to claim the top place on the log.

Last five matches: DDLWD

The People’s Elephants settled for their third stalemate of the season in just ten starts. Enyimba Aba picked up an important point on the road against Bayelsa United. In a game where they dominated and got the first goal, the People’s Elephant were defensively poor, scoring an own goal to split points. Before then, they defeated Ikorodu City (2-1) on their home ground. Enyimba Aba have managed five wins this season, scoring thirteen and conceding eight. 

The Eastern-based team and two-time CAF Champions have picked up eighteen points from a combined thirty. 

Olarenwaju’s men will be determined to maintain their decent home record. 

Last five games: WLWLW

The Sky Blue Stars leapfrogged Rivers United on the log following their slim (1-0) victory over Lobi Stars. Micheal Ibe scored the only goal and just the first this season to secure all the points for his side. Before then, Remo Stars had lost against Heartland Owerri. 

Remo Stars have either won or lost in over their last twenty-one games in all competitions. It has been an all-or-nothing for them this season, winning seven and losing three. 

The Sky Blue Stars have picked up twenty-one points in their previous ten matches, scoring thirteen and six. 

Daniel Ogunmodede's men have won twice and lost three games on the road this season. 

Both teams have won four games apiece and three games ending in a tie over their previous eleven meetings. 

Enyimba have been below par lately but can’t afford to drop points against Remo Stars if they are to challenge for the NPFL title. If the hosts win this game, they could move to second place on the table, and we are not sure Olarenwaju’s men will spurn their chances. 

This is a highly competitive game that could end either way since Enyimba lost both home and away to their guests last season. To be on the safe side, bet on a home win or draw and BTTS for 2.85.

We are not sure a stalemate will surface here as the guests have not drawn a game this season; bet on anyone winning and over 1.5 goals for 2.13.

We also think this game will produce more goals after the break for 2.20.

Good luck!
