Nasarawa United vs Bayelsa United Prediction: The Solid Miners won’t lose back-to-back on their home turf

On Sunday, Nasarawa United will square off against Bayelsa United at the Lafia City Stadium. The home side will strive to secure maximum points here, having played twice on their ground without a breakthrough. 

Last four matches: DDLW

Trying to bounce back from their recent home defeat, Nasarawa United picked up a shocking (1-2) victory over Ikorodu City on the road. Nasarawa United scored in both halves, while the hosts responded once to cart away all the points. The result was after their disappointing (3-4) loss on their ground against El Kanemi Warriors.

The Solid Miners are yet to register a win on their ground this season, and they’ll need the likes of Anas Yusuf and Kabiru Balogun to be sharp in front of the goal to get anything away from this game. 

Last four games: LDDL

Diepreye Teibowei's men have played four games this campaign without a breakthrough. More recently, they surrendered to a (1-0) defeat against Enugu Rangers on the road and will now travel to Nasarawa two days later to face off against their opponent. They have struggled this season and have scored twice 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 have won once on the road over their previous nine matches. 

The last three meetings have seen Nasarawa United with two victories and Bayelsa United with a win. Even though the hosts have failed to win on their ground this season, Nasarawa United have played well. They head here sky-high in spirits following their recent away victory. At the same time, Bayelsa United will travel to Nasarawa two days after their game against Rangers International in Enugu. It’s a long journey and they might be jaded for this game against a side who’s willing to do anything to get all the points here.

We expect an open game with the hosts scoring before the break for 1.93.

We also think the guests might get a goal here since Nasarawa United have not kept a clean sheet on their ground. 

Good luck!
