The Pride of Rivers have lost back-to-back games in all competitions heading here. Before their trip to Congo, they suffered a setback against the newly promoted Doma United FC. Against the Gombe side, they fell to a (2-1) loss despite scoring first against the home side. Following their first defeat of the season, Rivers United bowed to another loss against Diables Noirs as the home side scored three first goals without a response from the present NPFL champions.

Rivers United have won all their last three home games, scoring six while conceding twice.

The Flying Antelopes head here after a slim (1-0) win over Doma United. Enugu Rangers were wasteful against the newly promoted side and deserved more than just a goal.

Rangers International have lost three times this season, sitting in sixth place with three points above the relegation zone. Rangers are struggling upfront with three goals since the beginning of the campaign.

The Flying Antelopes are yet to win a game on the road this season, losing twice while sharing the spoils once.

Only one game has ended in a share of the spoils over their previous thirteen meetings, while Rangers have won five and Rivers United recorded seven victories.

Rivers United will be desperate for points at home before their match against Ivorian giant ASEC Mimosas on Saturday. They have a few hours to prepare for this game, but we are confident they won’t lose. Bet on a home win for 1.40.

We don’t expect many goals here; bet on a total under 2.5 goals for 1.60.

Bet on a home win and under 2.5 goals for 2.50.

Good luck!
