Rivers United vs Enugu Rangers Prediction: The encounter won’t deprive us of goals

After a dominant team display against Plateau United, Rivers United will face off against Enugu Rangers in the bid to end this season well at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium. This highly anticipated fixture is expected to end in favor of the hosts, but it won’t be a walk in the park as the visitors can cause havoc here.

The Pride of Rivers are gradually coming together with three victories over the last five matches. They head here after their back-to-back victories over Plateau United and Heartland Owerri at home. Rivers United's victory over Plateau United was a joy to watch, as they scored three times while the visitors responded once. Despite the winnings, it’s extremely strange to see Rivers in 17th place on the log, and with their participation in the continental tournament cut short, we expect changes in the coming weeks. They have picked up thirty-four points from a combined seventy-two and are three points above the relegation zone. Rivers United have drawn four and won nine on their ground this season.

Rangers internationals quickly adjusted after their defeat on the road as they won (3-2) against Abia Warriors. Following their disappointing outing against Kaduna United, Rangers International scored three while their opponent responded twice at the Cathedral. 

Fidelis Ikechukwu's men have produced some beautiful performances this season, and their recent results weren’t exempted. They are back at the top of the log with three points above second-placed Enyimba Aba. 

The Flying Antelope frontmen of Godwin Obaje, Nwaodu, and Ogunleye have been a menace to teams, and we expect them to continue their decent run. 

Fidelis Ikechukwu's men have won three, lost eight and drawn four on the road this season. 

Over their previous sixteen meetings, Rivers United have won eight while Enugu Rangers have won six and two games ending in a tie. Rivers United have recovered fully from their terrible run, complementing it with back-to-back victories at home. Even though they languish in the red zone on the log, they have six outstanding games. At the same time, Enugu Rangers are in massive form and are well-positioned to win the league this season. Their last away games produced more than six goals, while the hosts' recent match ended with four. Both teams are not concerned about defending and we are confident this encounter will produce more than two goals for 2.28.

We expect both teams to get a goal apiece here for 2.15.

Definitely, the hosts are the favourite, so we expect them to score more than two goals here for

Good luck!
