Nasarawa United vs El Kanemi Warriors Prediction: The home team is expected to take maximum points

Nasarawa United will host El Kanemi Warriors at the Lafia Township Stadium in round 3 of the NPFL 2024/2025 season. Both teams could not secure a win in their respective opener. How will this game unfold?

Nasarawa United

Nasarawa United have settled for a draw twice this season and will hope to win this time. In their opener against Shooting Stars, this team saw a last-minute Samuel Ayanrinde deny them maximum points, and on the road against Niger Tornadoes last weekend, they played to a goalless draw. This season in the Nigeria Professional Football League, Nasarawa United have accumulated two points, leaving them seated 11th in the standings. 

El Kanemi Warriors

El Kanemi Warriors started their season with a goalless draw with Enugu Rangers and will hope to get on the winning end this time. In that game, this team had 11 shots attempted with just three, which they failed to convert on target. In the meantime, El Kanemi Warriors have failed to win any of their last matches into this week's three fixtures, losing and drawing Dadje in a two-legged encounter in the CAF Confederation. In those matches, El Kanemi Warriors scored two goals while conceding three. 

Expert Betting Tips

Nasarawa United are the better team in this fixture and won the last two meetings of this fixture. However, El Kanemi had a very solid performance last weekend on the road against Enugu Rangers and could rely on that defensive play here. With the two teams not being good offensively, we can expect a few goals while Nasarawa United takes maximum points.
