Plateau United have a second straight game at home as they welcome giants Enyimba next in the Nigerian Football League. One point separates these sides with Enyimba being fourth on 29 and Plateau United fifth with 28 points. Plateau United are coming from a 3-2 win at home to Rivers United and here they will be gunning for three more points. A win could lift them two places up to third and that will be the target here. The two losses they have suffered in the last four matches have all been in away matches. Plateau United will be glad to get back-to-back matches at home, having done well at their backyard this season. In their last eight home matches, they’ve posted straight wins. In their last 67 home matches, Plateau United have suffered just one loss – that was against league leaders Remo Stars.

Enyimba are also coming from a win, beating Sporting Lagos 2-0 at home. They will be looking to build on that as they also seek a second straight win over Plateau United. Their 2-1 win over Plateau United in April 2023 was the first in five meetings. Enyimba have suffered two losses in the last three meetings with Plateau United and haven't managed a clean sheet in the last four meetings. They will definitely be hoping for better times here. Their away form doesn’t make for a very confident reading; Enyimba have lost five of their last eight away matches. They however come into this match with two straight away wins.
