Prediction: Enyimba to win 1-0.
Rivers United only managed to win six of their opening 16 league matches, and their current disturbing form suggests they cannot keep up with this decent Enyimba side. The visitors won 3 of their last 5 league matches and 10 of their last 18 league matches, and they are likely to get the win in Port Harcourt.
We predict under 2.5 goals on Rivers United vs Enyimba. Six of Rivers United’s last ten matches ended with less than three goals, while six of Enyimba’s last ten matches ended similarly. Their recent results suggest this encounter will end with under 2.5 goals.
Rivers United are in dire form, having only managed one win in their last five league matches. They have managed only 5 wins in their opening 16 league matches and their inconsistency has left them battling to stay up in the top flight, with 3 points off the danger zone.
Enyimba have done well this season, having won 1o of their last 19 league matches. The People’s Elephants are fighting for the top spot, and a win over Rivers United will keep them only one point off Remo Stars, who have played a game more.
