Lobi Stars vs El Kanemi Prediction: This fierce encounter might end in a share of the spoils

On Wednesday, Lobi Stars will face off against El Kanemi Warriors at the Lafia City Stadium tomorrow. The guests are yet to taste defeat since gaining promotion, and they’ll be keen to maintain such a record against a solid home team. 

Last five games: LLLWD

The Bauchi-based team continue their resurgence in the division and they are now unbeaten in their last two matches. Following their (1-0) victory over Shooting Stars, Lobi Stars scored first but conceded minutes late to secure a point against Niger Tornadoes on the road. They thought they had all the points in the bag when Ossy Martins found the back of the net for them in the 61st minute until the hosts leveled to share the spoils. 

Things haven’t been going in the right direction for the hosts with a win over their last six games. 

Lobi Stars are aware that a win here would give them the confidence to surge ahead in the long run, and we expect them to approach this game aggressively. 

Last five games: DWDDD

The guests are one of the two teams without a defeat this campaign. They have been formidable since promotion, but have picked up seven points from a combined fifteen. El Kanemi Warriors march here with a toothless stalemate against Heartland Owerri. It was a disappointing performance against their opponent who have been struggling lately. 

El Kanemi Warriors have drawn four and won once over their previous five matches.

They have been decent on the road, winning once and settling for a share of the spoils. 

Both teams have won three games apiece while they have settled for a stalemate over their previous seven games. Lobi Stars have struggled this season, but seem to be back on their feet with two games without defeat. At the same time, the guests will come with their usual plan of not losing. 

The Yes Father Boys can’t afford to lose on their home turf, the same as the guests and we think both teams are capable of getting a goal apiece here for 2.55.

This game might eventually end in a share of the spoils for 3.20.

We anticipate an early lead for the hosts; bet on home to score before the break for 2.00.

Good luck!
