Plateau United vs Enyimba FC Prediction: Home team to get first season win

The third round of matches for the Nigeria Professional Football League will take place at the New Jos Stadium, and one of the matchups is Plateau United taking on Enyimba FC. Bendel defeated the home team last week, and Akwa United and Enyimba FC both played to a draw.

After going two games without a victory so far this season, Plateau United has not been performing up to its potential. On the other hand, they will have higher expectations for the outcome this time. Plateau United's season opened with a 3-3 tie against Shooting Stars, a game in which they overcame a two-goal deficit to earn the draw. The following week, however, they were unable to prevent a loss to Bendel by preventing a late goal from being scored against them. They have played two games so far this year and have a record of one point, scoring four goals while allowing five in total.

The performance that Enyimba FC turned up against Akwa United, in which they were held to a goalless draw, would likely leave them feeling disappointed. As a result of the outcome of that encounter, Enyimba FC is undoubtedly aware that they still have a great deal of room for improvement, particularly in the offensive department. Enyimba is currently in third place in the NPFL standings after earning four points so far this season thanks to a win in their opening match of the season against Nasarawa United and a draw against Kwara United.

Plateau United and Enyimba FC have only played each other a total of eight times, with Plateau United coming out on top twice and Enyimba FC claiming victory twice. A total of four of the games were decided by a draw. Plateau United managed to score seven goals during those matches, while Enyimba FC could only muster up four. On the other hand, we anticipate that the team playing at home will obtain the victory that they so desperately require on their own soil as they look forward to picking up their first win of the season.
