Katsina United vs Lobi Stars Prediction: Both sides will get a goal apiece

On Saturday, Katsina United will face off against Lobi Stars at the Muhammadu Dikko Stadium. With their return to the topflight division, Katsina United must prove they belong here, and a win against a strong Lobi Stars tomorrow will affirm the goal for the new season.

The hosts began their league journey with a (1-0) victory over Kwara United. More recently, after a defensive error from Kolimba, which resulted in Ibrahim finding the back of the net, Katsina United will be desperate to bounce back. Of course, Katsina United played better and were unlucky to have left without a goal.

Katsina United usually win on their own turf; however, they must be careful at the back against a highly-rated Lobi Stars team.

The Bauchi-based side began their journey with a (2-2) share of the spoils against Heartland of Owerri. Lobi Stars found the back of the net twice before the break despite being the visiting side; however, the home team responded two times in the last ten minutes to deny Lobi Stars the first win of the season. More recently, they picked up their first three points at home, beating Sunshine Stars (3-2). A lot still needs to be done by the guests who are yet to fix their defensive problems since last season.

Over their previous ten meetings, Lobi Stars have won four while Katsina United have recorded two victories and four games ending in a tie. Katsina United have struggled against Lobi Stars in their last five games. Katsina United played well against Kano Pillars, and even though they lost, they deserved a point at least. On the other hand, Lobi Stars won on their ground but fumbled at the back again. We expect an end-to-end game here with goals at both ends for 2.35.

The stakes are high, and both teams are primed to give it their all here. Expect passion, skill, and heart-stopping moments that will keep you on the edge of your seat. We think this encounter will end in a share of the spoils for 3.17.

Bet on a total of over 2.5 goals for 2.71.

Good luck!
