Fourth-placed Abia Warriors play host to ninth-placed Shooting Stars in this Nigeria Premier Football League matchday 35 fixture on Sunday. Can the Umuahia Warriors boost their chances of a top-two finish with a win over the Oluyole Warriors? Follow our prediction for the match below.
Abia Warriors strengthened their bid for a top-two finish in the Nigerian top flight on matchday 29. They won four of their five matches, including three in a row, before a shock 5-1 away defeat to Katsina United in their last match.
Notably, the Umuahia Warriors will enter this match on the back of low-scoring games. Nine of their last 11 matches ended with under 2.5 goals, including their last five home matches.
Shooting Stars, marooned in ninth place with 48 points, fell five points behind the top four following a 1-0 home defeat to league leaders Remo Stars in their last match. This result extends their winless run in the league to four matches.
Gbenga Ogunbote's side have navigated through goal-shy games as well. Six of their last nine league matches have ended with under 2.5 goals, including eight of their last 11 away games. Hence, our prediction for this match.
