Remo Stars: Form Analysis
Remo Stars bounced back to winning ways with a 2-1 win over Nasarawa United in their last game. Goals from Stanley Joseph and Michael Okoro Ibe were enough to run away with the three points in the game. The win eased the pressure on the Sky Blue Stars, who have been battling relegation recently. They have managed to pick up just two wins in their last ten games. In fact, the defending champions sit second to the bottom of the table with 33 points in 30 games, scoring 29 goals and conceding 39.
Kwara United: Form Analysis
Kwara United played a goalless draw in their last game against Rangers to extend their unbeaten streak to three straight games. Despite the points deduction that came from the violent fans, the Afonja Warriors have managed to remain unbeaten in five of their last six games. However, they have lost eight of their last nine games on the road. They sit 18th on the table with 33 points in 30 games, scoring 21 goals and conceding 26.
Key facts and Head-to-Head stats

Prediction
Remo Stars are currently in the relegation pool, and if care is not taken, the defending champions would go from playing on the continental stage to playing in the NNL next season. Despite this, their last game against Nasarawa United showed that they can still make something out of nothing. Therefore, my prediction is a win for the hosts at 1.51 odds.
