Shooting Stars vs Abia Warriors Prediction: The Oluyole Warriors will get off to a flying start

The Oluyole Warriors, who have been in decent form lately, will be keen to bounce back from their recent setback in the FA Cup when they face off against Abia Warriors at the Adamasingba Stadium on Sunday. The hosts are eyeing a continental spot this season, and a victory here will give them a chance to close the gap at the top of the log.

Last five games: WWLWD

The Oluyole Warriors are confident in playing continental football next season, having lost one of their last six matches in the league. Shooting Stars march here with a (2-2) stalemate against a strong Katsina United team. They almost walked off with the maximum points until their opponent scored with the last kick of the game. 

The result means Shooting Stars will retain their spot on the log after picking fifty-three points from a possible sixty-six. Shooting Stars have won seven consecutive home matches, keeping clean sheets in all.

The Pride of Abia head here without a breakthrough in four consecutive games on the road and are back to fighting for survival. This time, they suffered a shocking defeat on their ground against title contenders Enyimba Aba. Bernard Ovoke scored in the 72nd minute to cart away all the maximum points in a must-win game. 

Abia Warriors rely heavily on their home form to rack up points this season, as they have managed just a win over their previous seventeen away from home. Abia Warriors currently occupy the 12th position on the log, with forty-four points from a combined ninety-nine.

Coach Erasmus Onuh's men have lost fourteen, won once and lost a game over their last sixteen away matches. 

Over their previous nine meetings, Abia Warriors have won five, while Shooting Stars have recorded two wins and two games ending in a tie. Shooting Stars have had a decent season so far and to crown it up with a continental ticket will be their dream. They play against an Abia Warriors team who have been terrible away from home. The hosts will be at the top of their game, especially after their performance against Katsina United on the road; bet on home halftime victory for 2.05.

We expect the visitors to get a BTTS here for 2.20.

The hosts will score in both halves for 2.40.

Good luck!
