Lobi Stars unbeaten streak on acid test as clash against Rivers United FC comes knocking

Posted : 28 October 2023
Rivers United will attempt to displace the high-flying Lobi Stars of Makurdi in a fierce encounter expected to be played at Adokiye Aniesimaka Stadium, Port Harcourt, for the 2023/2024 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) Match Day 5 showdown on Sunday.

Rivers United, known for their rising tempo in the league, will aim to put an end to Lobi Stars' unbeaten run. The Pride of Rivers, under the tutelage of experienced coach Stanley Eguma, hopes to utilize their attacking trio talents of Andy Okpe, Alex Oyowah, and Nyima Nwagua to break Lobi Stars' unbeaten streak.

Despite their efforts, the Pride of Rivers succumbed to a last-minute goal from Rabiu Ali, which gave Pillars the maximum points in the Match Day 4 fixtures.

For Lobi Stars, the responsibility will rest on Liman Ahmadu and Alao Danbani, who scored the two goals in the last game. Rivers United will have extra work to do to contain Danbani, who has been impressive since the start of the season.

Lobi Stars' head coach, Eugene Agagbe, has warned his players not to get carried away with the team's recent success. Agagbe encouraged the players to approach the matches with the utmost seriousness as the season progresses.

"I appreciate your efforts, and I want to encourage you not to get carried away with the results," he stated during his address to the players. "The matches are many, and we must take them one by one with the utmost seriousness."

Head-to-head:
In the last 16 matches between both clubs, Lobi Stars have the edge with seven wins, one more than Rivers United FC, which has six wins. Three matches ended in a draw.

Prediction:
Rivers United to win.
