Nigeria's heavyweights Enyimba Aba will ignite their hope of qualifying for the knockout stage when they face off against Mozambique-based team Black Bull at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium on Sunday. The hosts will be keen to avenge their recent loss on the road against their opponent, and to do that, they must do everything perfectly on a neutral ground tomorrow.

NIGERIA-based side, Enyimba Aba, head here without a win in the group as they suffered another defeat on the road. The Elephants were outclassed by their opponent for the second consecutive away game. Enyimba Aba conceded three goals against a team who are playing their first ever continental tournament. It was a devastating display for the most successful team in the Nigeria Professional League. The Elephants have struggled this season in both their domestic league and this competition.
Enyimba Aba have had a terrible start to the competition, with two defeats and a stalemate.
Enyimba Aba are one of the most successful sides in Nigeria and are well-prepared to take on one of their guests tomorrow.
Black Bulls (Mozambique)
Last three games: LDW
The Mozambique-based team have settled in well in this tournament, losing once in three games. Recently, they overwhelmed their opponent, scoring three unanswered goals. Black Bulls pulled off one of their best performances this season, and even though they didn’t create many chances, they scored all their shots on target.
After their defeat on the road against Zamalek, they settled for a share of the spoils against Al Masry on their home turf and won against Enyimba Aba.
The Mozambique-based team, founded in 2017, are playing their first-ever continental group game. They have been formidable since promotion and have lost fifteen times in all competitions since 2021.
Black Bulls are inexperienced in this competition but presently sit in second place with four points from a combined nine.
Expert Betting Tips
The reverse leg was an equal game, but Black Bull wanted the game more, as they converted all three of their shots at the goal. It’s going to be another different game entirely when they travel to Nigeria tomorrow, as we expect the hosts to get off to a flyer and probably secure all the points.
Usually, Black Bull will be more conservative this time and try to counterattack Enyimba who have been terrible at the back.
Enyimba Aba are aware of the threat their opponent poses, and we are confident they’ll deal with it tomorrow.
I’m backing the hosts to secure all the points against Black Bull, who are also capable of at least finding the back of the net.
The hosts have been unable to express themselves in front of goal, but the arrival of former West Brom striker Brown Ideye might just be that glue they needed in front of goal. I’m expecting this game to produce more than two goals for 1.92.
I also expect a solid start from the hosts and hopefully, they get a halftime win here for 2.03.
Good luck!
