For the Bayelsa United vs Abia Warriors prediction, we say Abia Warriors will win and this is why. Bayelsa United are winless in their last five matches (3D 2L), and are likely to succumb to a rare home defeat to the Pride of Abia, who won two and lost three of their last five games.
Prediction: Bayelsa United 1-2 Abia Warriors
We predict both teams to score on Bayelsa United vs Abia Warriors and this is why. Four of Bayelsa Utd’s last five NPFL matches ended in BTTS, and the same for Abia Warriros.
Betting Tip: Both teams to score
Bayelsa United drew three and lost two of their last five league matches. They have struggled to keep clean sheets and their porous backline has been one of the reasons behind their poor start to the season. The Yenogoa outfits are in the 19th position with only nine points from 10 matches.
Abia Warrior may have lost three and won two of their last five league matches, but the Pride of Abia sit in the 7th position with 15 points after 10 matches. One fun fact about this team is that they are a good goal-scoring side.
