19th-placed Sunshine Stars will play host to 13th-placed Katsina United in this Nigeria Premier Football League matchday 35 fixture on Sunday. Can the Akure Gunners boost their chances of beating the drop with a win over the Changi Boys? Here is our prediction for the match.
Sunshine Stars lost 1-0 to Rivers United in their last match. They will head into this match with their hopes of staying in the Nigerian top flight on the line. Languishing in 19th place with 38 points, the Akure-based side could close the gap to the safety zone to one point with a win on Sunday.
Notably, Abubakar Bala's will enter this match on the back of low-scoring games. Five of their last six matches have ended with under 2.5 goals, including two of their last three home matches.
Katsina secured a six-point cushion from the drop zone following an impressive 5-1 home victory over fourth-placed Abia Warriors in their last match.
However, Henry Makinwa's side have struggled in the attack on the road lately. They haven't scored a single goal in their last six away matches and have navigated through a run of low-scoring matches in their last 15 trips. 14 of their last 15 away matches have ended with under 2.5 goals. Hence, our prediction.
