Abia Warriors vs Sporting Lagos Prediction: The visitors stand no chance against the hosts

Abia Warriors will hope for a better result this time when they host Sporting Lagos at the Umuahia Stadium on Wednesday. The hosts have won all their games at home, while the visitors head here without a win on the road this season.

Abia Warriors (8th)

Last five games: WLLWD

The Pride of Abia head here with a (2-2) share of the spoils against Bayelsa United on the road. They scored twice after the break but couldn’t hold on as the hosts scored twice in five minutes. It was a decent result but not a great display from them. Abia Warriors currently occupy the 8th position on the log, with sixteen points from a combined thirty-three.

Interestingly, Abia Warriors have a perfect home record so far this season, and Coach Erasmus Onuh’s side will look to keep that record running. Their optimism was boosted with the return of some key players from injury who are likely to be on parade.

Sporting Lagos (10th)

Last five games: WLDLW

After three games without a win, the Noisy Lagosians bounced back with a victory over Katsina United.
