Bendel Insurance vs Kano Pillars Prediction: The hosts will win before the break

On Tuesday, Bendel Insurance will face off against the Kano Pillars at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium. The hosts will be keen to bounce back from their recent home defeat, but they’ll have to be at their best to get anything away from this encounter. 

Bendel Insurance (8th)

Last five games: LWLLD

After their back-to-back losses, the Benin Arsenal head here with an improved display on the road against Kwara United. They settled for a share of the spoils against a very difficult opponent and will expect them to pick up from there. Since selling their two most influential players, Benjamin Tanimu and Ezekiel Tamara, Bendel Insurance have struggled without a proper replacement. They have now gone three games without a breakthrough as they sit in 8th place on the log. 

Benin Arsenal have picked up thirty-eight points from a combined eighty-seven. They have drawn three, lost once, and won ten games at home this season. 

Kano Pillars (10th)

Last five games: LWLLD

The visitors have managed just a win over their previous eight games—Kano Pillars, who were in the race for the NPFL but are now fighting for their lives. The visitors dropped to the tenth place on the log as they now trail the league leaders with ten points. Kano Pillars have found the back of the net in nine of their last thirteen games in the league. Kano Pillars have always been a great team but have struggled lately. Kano Pillars won’t be able to challenge for the title this season, and we think they will finish in the top half of the table. 

Expert Betting Tips

Bendel Insurance have been below par lately, but they picked up a point on the road against Kwara United, and we think they’ll draw their motivation from the result. On the other hand, Kano Pillars have been underperforming in the league and head here with back-to-back defeats. Both teams are not at their best, but we think the hosts stand a better chance.

I think the visitors won’t leave without a fight here, and we are trusting them to at least get a goal; bet on BTTS for 2.28.

This game will produce more goals after the break for 2.14.

Good luck!
