Heartland FC vs Ikorodu City United: The Nazi Millionaire can't afford to lose in front of their passionate home supporters

On Thursday, Heartland FC will square off against Ikorodu City at the Dan Anyiam Stadium. The hosts have failed to keep a clean sheet against Ikorodu City in their last two games and must tighten up to avoid conceding here. Can the guests get their first away win since promotion?

Heartland FC

The Nazi Millionaire continues their resurgence in the league, marching here with a share of the spoils on the road against El Kanemi Warriors. It was their first away stalemate on the road since the season began. Before then, they scored twice against Niger Tornadoes to amass all the points on their home turf. They have picked up four points five points from a combined eighteen, scoring four and conceding seven. Amuneke's men will be keen to do better this time, having signed some decent players during the transfer window. 

Their problem last season was winning away from home, as they had only acquired four points during the previous nineteen away games.

Ikorodu City

The Lagos-based team and newly promoted Ikorodu City recorded their first victory of the season, scoring three unanswered goals against Bendel Insurance. It was a great game of football as their interim coach continued to instil his tactics in the team. They had lost three consecutive games before then, scoring once in four games. They have not been at their best on the road and have now lost twice and drawn once away from home. Ikorodu City must be at their best to get anything against their opponent here.
