Heartland played Abia Warriors the previous weekend and secured a much-needed win. Michael Ogu put this team in the lead in the 12th minute, and a 90+4 minute strike by Chukwuma Agor was enough to seal maximum points for this team away from home. However, Heartland have won consecutive matches, the first being a 1-0 victory over Remo Stars. Yet, Heartland could only settle for draws against El Kanemi and Ikorodu City while losing on the road to Bayelsa United.
Sunshine Stars
Sunshine Stars lost to Bendel Insurance last weekend and will now look to right their wrong. In a game that ended 1-2, Tiunde Sodiq's 30th-minute strike leveled the score for Sunshine Stars before the break, but a 60th-minute Nnamdi Anthony’s strike denied them a point at least at full time. However, Sunshine Stars have lost three times in the last four matches, two coming against Kwara United and Plateau United, ending 3-0 identical scores. This season, Sunshine Stars have accumulated 13 points from 10 matches, positioning them 10th in the standings.
Expert Betting Tips
This is an open game for grabs for the two sides as they are playing at the same level. Also, their past meetings have ended with close scores and with very tight scorelines. While at home, Heartland have a very good chance here, especially coming off strong results. While Sunshine Stars have played below par in recent times, they do not look appealing on the road. While this could be another game with both teams scoring like the previous meeting, a bet on the home team is the best option as they are on a good run.
