Ikorodu City vs Enyimba Aba FC: Prediction and odds on the Match on 28 September 2025

With five games without a loss this season, Enyimba Aba will be keen to maintain their unbeaten run when they face off against Ikorodu City at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena on Sunday. The Oga Boys, who suffered their first loss of the season a few days ago, will strive to flip the script against the most successful side in the history of the competition.

Last five games: DDDWL

The Oga Boys couldn’t maintain their momentum as they were beaten by Niger Tornadoes on the road. Ikorodu City started poorly and conceded in the first few seconds, in the 14th minute, they let in another goal and conceded the third. For the first time since promotion, the Oga Boys let in three goals at the break in a game. In the second half, they responded once to get back into the game, but conceded minutes later as the match ended in a (4-2) loss against Niger Tornados. 

The Lagos-based team and the newly promoted team got promoted last campaign, and Ikorodu City has fully adapted to their new environment. Ali Kandil’s men have accumulated six points from their previous five games, scoring five and conceding five times.

Ikorodu City have won once and lost a game across their last two matches at home.

The Lagos-based side were below par defensively as Owolabi started from the bench. Adelanni was also missing for the Oga Boys, and we expect him to make the team this time, providing another attacking option. 

Ikorodu City Potential Starting Lineup (4-3-3)

Atata—Abatan, Odinaka, Chibuzor, Udoh—Ojetayo, Onwe, Oyedokun—MUSA, Lawal, UCHE

Head coach: Ali Kandil

Last five games: DWDWW

The Elephants are firing on all cylinders this campaign, and are one of the two sides yet to taste defeat. Enyimba Aba pulled off a surprise stunt, coming from a goal down to amass all the points at the Enyimba Aba International Stadium. The game started off with the Elephants going behind with three minutes on the pitch, while Abiodun responded to give his side a voice in the second half. Enyimba Aba were once again vulnerable at the back and were on the losing end just after the break. Chidera and Nweke found the back of the net to secure the Elephants a (3-2) victory in front of their home supporters. Enyimba Aba have been pretty decent lately, and they have been tipped to win the NPFL title this campaign.

The Eastern-based team and two-time CAF Champions have picked up eleven points from a combined fifteen, scoring six and conceding twice. The Elephants have drawn once and lost a game on the road this campaign, and a win will boost their morale.

Ikorodu City vs Enyimba Aba FC match prediction 28 September 2025

The Oga Boys suffered their first loss since the league began; this time, it was a heavy defeat on the road. Ikorodu City were unbeaten before the game, and they'll be keen to rewrite their mistake in Lagos tomorrow. Meanwhile, Enyimba Aba recovered from a losing end to secure all the points, but it won't come on a platter of gold. They are one of the two sides yet to taste defeat since the league began, as they sit comfortably at the top of the log.

Ikorodu City rarely loses on their home ground, but they face a tough test against the most successful team in the history of the competition. The Elephants are not the ones to be intimidated by the home supporters; however, they must not be carried away by their confidence. This is an attacking game, as their last three matches have ended with a goal apiece. Personally, I think the guests will be on their best behaviour, and they are my favourite pick here.

My match prediction is a BTTS with a coefficient of 2.25 on the 1xbet bookmaker. 

My betting tip on this match is for Ikorodu City to score before the break with a coefficient of 2.01 on the Bet365 bookmaker.

My final betting tip is over 2.5 goals for 2.65 on the Betway bookmaker. 

Good luck!
