Enyimba International vs Katsina United Prediction: This game could go either way

In round five NPFL matches, Enyimba International will play Katsina United at Enyimba International Stadium. The two teams are coming off a league win and will have a lot of momentum heading into this game. Will there be a winner in this game? Below, you will find match previews and betting opportunities. 

Enyimba International pulled off a 1-0 win over Akwa United last time out, a game that ended 1-0. In that game, Enyimba International had five shots attempted, and Austine Onyemaehi scored the lone goal of the day in the 74th minute. However, prior matches to that win saw Enyimba International lose to Rivers United while securing wins over Lobi Stars and Heartland of Owerri. With nine points, Enyimba International sit third in the NPFL standings, scoring six goals and conceding four.

Katsina United made it three matches without a defeat last weekend against Lobi Stars. This team secured a 3-0 win in that game, with Falolu Azeez, Nazifi Yahya, and Ahmed Abdoultaofik scoring for this side. In the meantime, Katsina United have suffered only one defeat this season, coming against Plateau United in their week one game. This team defeated Bendel Insurance and drew Heartland of Owerri in other matches. With seven games from a possible 12, Katsina United sit 6th in the NPFL standings, scoring five goals, with two conceded. 

This is a tough game to predict, but I will favor the home team, given their win record at home. Katsina United's offensive performance this season is top-notch, but they have not shown that on the road. This should be a close contest, but I do not expect any surprises. Therefore, back Enyimba International, while the two teams find the back of the net.
