Last four games: DWDW

The Elephants sit at the top of the standings after their emphatic start to the season. Enyimba Aba, who settled for a share of the spoils at home against Nasarawa United, knew they couldn’t afford to drop points in back-to-back games, as they scored twice to amass all the points against Bayelsa United. After a quiet halftime display, which saw both teams settle for a draw. The second half began in similar fashion and it was looking like another stalemate on the road until Michael Chidera broke the deadlock in the 81st minute before Nweke’s goal minutes later. It ended in a (0-2) victory for Enyimba Aba in a very tight game away from home.

The Eastern-based team and two-time CAF Champions have picked up eight points from a combined twelve, scoring three and conceding none. 

The Elephants have drawn once and lost a game at home this campaign, and a win here is of high importance.

Last five games: LDDW

The Benin Arsenal picked up their first breakthrough of the season, having gone three consecutive matches without a win. Bendel Insurance, who were in search of their first victory of the campaign, started strong against Niger Tornadoes; unfortunately, none of their chances could find the back of the net. The game was almost going to end in a share of the spoils until substitute Emmanuel scored a last-minute ditch for Bendel Insurance. The (1-0) victory wasn’t a convincing performance but a great result as they moved away from the relegation spot.

Before then, they had shared the spoils against Barau FC and Shooting Stars FC. For the very first time this campaign, the Benin Arsenal failed to concede in a game, keeping a clean sheet against their most recent opponents.

Benin Arsenal have picked up five points from a combined twelve, scoring four and conceding four. They have drawn once and lost once in front of their home supporters this season.

Coach Greg Ikhenoba still has lots to do with their attacking side of the game, as well as tweaking the defense. They have to play defensively in this game, and to get anything away from Enyimba, Adebayo has to be at his very best.

Adeniyi—Onyia, Adebayo, Junior—Osayande, Itoro, Anthony, Iyanda—Udom, Solomon, Nwosu

Enyimba Aba vs Bendel Insurance FC match prediction 21 September 2025

Benin Arsenal have now gone three games without a loss, and it’s a step forward in their attempt to challenge for a top-four finish this season. Bendel Insurance will approach this game with the aim of returning home with the maximum points, but looking at Enyimba's Aba home form, it will be difficult.

Meanwhile, Enyimba Aba can’t afford to share the spoils in back-to-back games in the league, as they aim to maintain their spot at the top of the table. 

The Elephants have made a quality signing during the week, and the players will be keen to hit the ground running. Since Enyimba Aba are looking forward to picking up all the points in front of their home fans, I’m confident they’ll be stronger than the guests here. 

Looking at their recent meetings, Enyimba Aba are expected to maintain their defensive form in this game and get it right in front of goal.

My match prediction is that Enyimba Aba will win and score fewer than three goals for a coefficient of 1.85 on the 1xbet bookmaker. 

My betting tip on this match is for this game to produce more goals after the break, for a coefficient of 2.15 on the Betway bookmaker.

My final betting tip is a halftime home win for 1.90 on the Bet365 bookmaker. 

Good luck!
