Fireworks expected as 3SC host leaders, Dolphins

In matches this
week, Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC), have a tough test ahead of them
as they host league leaders Dolphins FC. This star match would see both
teams going all out for a victory. The Port Harcourt side would be going
with one of the tightest defence line in the league. In the last 16
games, Dolphins have conceded only six goals. The task ahead of 3SC is
to at least have a draw but that may not be easy as the team from Port
Harcourt would be hoping to maintain their lead this season on the
league table. They would also want to improve on last year’s score sheet
where each team got away with just one point.

Things are still
looking up for the team from Ondo State as they travel to Zamfara for
the derby between them and Zamfara United. The Sunshine Stars would be
riding on a high they have been on since they have begun their campaign
to win the league this season. Zamfara United on the other hand have
suffered two league defeat and it seems they may be able to withstand
the fire power of the Stars.

Despite having the
duo of Cletus Itodo and Harrison Egbune off on national assignment, the
Gbenga Odubote managed side would still have determination working for
them as they continue their chase for the first position. Sunshine FC is
currently second behind Dolphins.

The derby between
the two bottom teams would be one to watch as Plateau United would be
hosting JUTH FC. Both clubs have performed below par recently with
Plateau United yet to win a game in the last five matches. Their
inability to score in front of goal could make this match a tough one as
both clubs would be hoping to rise against all odds to score goals.

Enyimba welcome Lobi

Today’s match
between Enyimba FC and Lobi stars may be a relatively predictable as
Enyimba host Lobi. Enyimba would want to regain back their momentum
after a surprising loss to the bottom leaders in the league, JUTH FC.
Victor Barnabas would be would be hoping to do well as his face his
former teammates when Lobi gets to Aba. The peoples’ elephant may have
an easy win as they have done in the past as they have an edge, winning
eight games in the last 14 meeting. Also Lobi have just been able to
garner a point in the last seven visits to the Aba Stadium.

The last match for
the week will be between those meeting each other for the first time
this season. This match would be one to watch as both teams have proved
to be in form. Hosts, Bukola Babes would be hoping to regain their
position back on the table after they lost last week. Both teams have
just lost once in the last five games but it seems Bukola Babes have the
upper hand as the Ocean Boys have not been able to pick a point from
their last seven away matches. They would have a tough time holding off
the attacking strength of the babes who are determined to remain in the
top flight league.
