Rivers United vs Kano Pillars Prediction: This game will produce more than two goals here

Rivers United have been below par in recent games and must be at their best to secure all the points when they face off against an attacking-minded Kano Pillars at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium on Sunday. Can the guests pull a surprise stunt against the hosts here?

Kano Pillars (8th)

Last five games: LWWDD

The Sai Magida Boys put up a good display in Lafia last week, returning from two goals to settling for a (2-2) stalemate on the road. Rabiu Ali continued his fine form this season, scoring once to take his tally to eight goals in the league, while Mustapha Umar found the back of the net once. This was after their (2-2) share of the spoils against Heartland Owerri on their home turf. Kano Pillars have picked up nineteen points from a combined thirty-nine, scoring eighteen and conceding seventeen. 

Usman Abdallah's men will be determined to replicate their decent performance on the road this season. 

Expert Betting Tips

Rivers United have won six, while Kano Pillars have recorded five victories and four games ending in a tie in their last fifteen meetings. This game has produced less than two goals over their previous six meetings, but their recent games tell me this one will be different. Rivers United have been inconsistent lately but have also shown some positive signs. They’ll definitely be at the top of their game against the guests, even though I think more than two goals will surface here.

Rivers United will likely get a goal before the break for 1.88.

I also hope the guests get a goal here; bet on BTTS for 2.70.

Good luck!
