Ikorodu City vs Katsina United FC Prediction: The Oga Boys hae been pretty solid against the guests

Ikorodu City will be keen to return to winning when they lock horns against Katsina United FC at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena on Monday. The Oga Boys, who have lost just two times this campaign, will host a side that have managed a win on the road in the entire 2025.

Last five games: WWLWD

Since their shocking loss against Kano Pillars away from home, the Oga Boys are unbeaten in the last two games. After defeating Abia Warriors in Lagos, they settled for a tie against Wikki Tourists on the road. They were threatened several times by their opponent; however, the heroic display from goalkeeper Ocheme won them a point.

The Lagos-based team and the newly formed team got promoted last campaign, and Ikorodu City has fully adapted to their new environment. Ali Kandil’s men have secured twenty-eight points from their previous sixteen games, scoring eighteen and conceding ten times.

Ikorodu City have won six and drawn two games across their last eight matches on their home turf.

Katsina United FC Form & Statistics

Last five games: DLWDL

The Chanji Boys suffered another defeat this season as they were beaten by Bendel Insurance at home. The game, which kicked off with great intensity, failed to produce a goal at the break. However, it was the guests who broke the deadlock when they scored in the 72nd minute to secure all the points. It was a devastating blow for Katsina United, who could have extended their run to three unbeaten runs in the NPFL. 

The Chanji Boys have been pretty consistent on their home ground and need to improve when they play away from home. 

Henry Makinwa’s comrades' only hope of surviving this season is to always win on their ground, and they have only tasted defeat twice at home this season. Katsina United have picked up twenty-one points from a combined total of forty-eight, scoring fourteen and conceding sixteen.

Ikorodu City vs Katsina United FC Match Prediction, 15 December 2025

Katsina United are struggling to get themselves together on the road, but are pretty decent on their home ground. Even though they were overwhelmed at home a few days ago and will be keen to flip the script, this game won’t come easily for them. Meanwhile, since Ikorodu City were beaten by Kano Pillars on the road, they have now played twice without a loss.

Ikorodu City FC are solid on their home ground, and after their poor display on the road against Wikki Tourists that almost saw them succumb to a loss, the maximum points are non-negotiable.

The Oga Boys view this game as an opportunity to secure the top spot, and considering Katsina United have been underperforming on the road lately, Ikorodu City will likely win comfortably. 

My match prediction is for the home team to win and under 3.5 goals, with a coefficient of 2.11 on the 1xbet bookmaker. 

My betting tip on this match is for Ikorodu City to score before the break with a coefficient of 2.02 on the Bet365 bookmaker.

My final betting tip is a correct score of (2-0) for 5.65 on the Betway bookmaker. 

Good luck!
