This neck-and-neck encounter in the Nigeria Premier Football League sees Nasarawa United welcome Ikorodu City to Lafia Township Stadium on Sunday. Nasarawa United are fourth in the standings with 44 points, while Ikorodu City are third with 45 points. Who is likely to come out on top? Here is our prediction.
Nasarawa United collapsed to their second defeat in three matches after a 2–0 loss to Enugu Rangers in their last outing. That result also saw them drop points in five of their last six matches in the Nigerian top flight.
However, the Solid Miners will be bridging with confidence coming into this match. They have posted a solid 9–4–1 record in their 14 home matches this season and are unbeaten in their last four home league fixtures (W2, D2).
Forward Alex Oweilayefa proved a nightmare opponent for Ikorodu City, scoring a hat-trick to inspire Bendel Insurance to a comprehensive 4–0 victory over the visitors. That loss ended Ikorodu City's three-match unbeaten run and left them two points adrift of the top two.
The Oga Boys will be eager to bounce back and strengthen their bid for the league title, but are set for a tough match on Sunday. They are winless in their previous two trips to face Nasarawa United and have lost five of their last six away matches.
