Kano Pillars vs Abia Warriors Prediction: The home team will get off to a flying start

The Nigeria Premier League continues as Kano Pillars welcome Abia Warriors to the Sani Abacha Stadium on Monday. The visitors will strive for their first win on the road since February last year, while the home team will play to wreak more havoc on the visiting team.

Kano Pillars (3rd)

Last five games: DWDWL

The visitors dropped to sixth on the log following their (3-2) defeat against Katsina United. They scored two goals but were not on the winning side as their opponent outscored them to secure the maximum points. Kano Pillars have found the back of the net in their last seven games in the league. Kano Pillars have been in decent form lately, winning four, losing once and sharing the spoils in their previous six games. 

Kano Pillars have always been a great team on their own turf, with ten wins and a share of the spoils. Kano Pillars could challenge for the title this season, and we think they won’t back down without a fight. 

Abia Warriors (10th)

Last five games: WLDLW

The Pride of Abia head here with a (1-0) victory over Kwara United on their ground. The win ended their three games without a win as they moved to 8th place on the log. 

Interestingly, Abia Warriors have a perfect home record so far this season, but are yet to win away from home. Coach Erasmus Onuh’s side have been terrible on the road, with ten defeats and a share of the spoils.

Expert Betting Tips

In their recent sixteen matches together, Kano Pillars have recorded eight wins, while Abua Warriors have managed five victories, and three games have ended in a draw. Kano Pillars will try all their best to win this game as they have failed to get all the points against Katsina United on matchday 22; they need to take advantage of their visitor's poor away form. We expect them to get a halftime victory for 2.03.

We expect this game to produce more than two goals for 2.07.

The visitors will likely get a goal, as the hosts have failed to keep a clean sheet on their ground in five games. 

Good luck!
