Leaders Bendel will host third-placed Remo Stars on Sunday at the Remo Star Stadium from 15:00 GMT.
A win is imperative for both teams; Bendel wants to retain their advantage at the top of Group A, while Remo is looking to cut the gap in the run-in.
Key Highlights
League leaders Bendel, in Group A, have yet to win a match in the NPFL in their last four outings. All four have been drawn. Bendel will look to bounce back to winning form in the business end of Group A action on Sunday when they host third-placed Remo Stars.
Remo have picked up the form in the last few matches. They are unbeaten in four NPFL outings; during this run, they have won twice and drawn twice. This ruin of form has seen them close in on second-placed Akwa and cut the lead to Bendel down to five points. A win on Sunday will reduce it even further down to just two points.
Injury Report
The two camps have not reported significant injury or suspension issues ahead of their showdown with each other on Sunday.
Prediction
League leaders, Bendel, playing at home, will win the match, extend their advantage over Remo Stars to eight points, and bolster their chances of keeping the chasing pack at bay.
