Rivers United Form Analysis
Rivers United will head back to the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) in the midst of pain following a hurtful exit from the CAF Champions League. The Pride of Rivers bowed out on an away-goals rule defeat in their Confederation games against Ivory Coast team San Pedro following a 3-3 aggregate score. They played a 1-1 draw in the first leg away before a 2-2 draw in the second leg. They will now aim to bounce back from the painful exit in the NPFL, where they began their campaign with a 2-0 win over Plateau United in the opening round of the NPFL.
Warri Wolves Form Analysis
Warri Wolves began their Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) games with a 2-1 loss against Bendel Insurance on matchday. Since the defeat, they are yet to play any games, as their game against Enugu Rangers was postponed due to Rangers' CAF Champions League commitments. They have a poor historical record when playing away games in the NPFL games as they have lost each of their last six away games in a row, and they are without a win in their last ten games dating back to last season.
