Abia Warriors vs Remo Stars Prediction & Betting Tips - NPFL Premier League

Prediction published on 18/02/2024, 01:45  by Daniel Ngulu in NPFL Premier League Predictions

Abia Warriors resume action in the Nigerian Premier Football League with a home game against Remo Stars on Friday. Placed second in the standings, Remo Stars are eight places ahead of Abia Warriors ahead of this game. In their last outing before the league took a break, Abia suffered a 2-1 loss away to Remo Stars. This is thus a good chance for them to avenge the loss. Three losses in their last five matches will however not be a great run to carry to this game. The hosts will be confident though, having scored in all their last four matches. It is a stepping stone they will expect to lead them to victory here. Their two wins in that five-match run were at home, and they scored three goals in both games. The Ochendo Babes are unbeaten in 16 home matches ahead of this game. In their last 10 matches at home in the league they have managed nine wins and a draw. Over 2.5 goals have been witnessed in all but one of Abia Warriors’ last seven matches. In each of their last three matches at home, Abia Warriors scored three goals.

This fixture rarely goes in the away side’s favor and coming here, Remo Stars will be keen on breaking that run. They haven't won here in their last two visits, losing one and drawing the other. In their five meetings with Abia Warriors, Remo Stars have done well, winning three times. They’ve only lost once in this fixture and thus will be confident as they take on Abia Warriors. Their win over Abia in the last game, saw Remo stay within touching distance of the league leaders Lobi Stars. They are just a point below Lobi Stars and their chase for a Champions League spot is well on course. The Sky Blue Stars have six wins in their last 10 matches but their away form leaves more questions. They have no win in their last four away matches, and in the last three in that run, they suffered straight defeats.
