Kun Khalifat vs Enyimba Aba FC: Prediction for the Match on October 12, 2025

Kun Khalifat vs Enyimba Aba FC: Prediction and odds on the Match on 12 October 2025

The Nigerian NPFL continues as Kun Khalifat lock horns against Enyimba Aba FC at the Dan Anyiam Stadium on Sunday with the aim of securing their second win of the season. The guests, on the other hand, will be looking forward to maintaining their unbeaten run in the NPFL this campaign. This is another Oriental Derby for Enyimba and the very first for Kun Khalifat, and I can't see any reason why the hosts will get a win here. 

Kun Khalifat FC (20th)

Last five games: LWLLD

The newly promoted side picked up their second stalemate of the season, this time against Niger Tornadoes on the road. As usual, Kun Khalifat FC started poorly, and in the 40th minute, they conceded a goal. They never stopped fighting since going behind, and even though the hosts were more threatening, they managed to hold on. After some time and towards the end of the game, Ugochukwu Stanley Akuta got an equalizer for the guests. It was an improved performance and a deserved share of the spoils away from home. 

The Pride of Imo were more than impressive this time, especially after their terrible display against Barau FC on their ground. 

Kun Khalifat, who got promoted this season, have picked up five points from a combined twenty-one, scoring seven and conceding eleven times. The Pride of Imo have not been impressive on their home ground, winning once and losing two games. 

Kun Khalifat Team News

The hosts have scored in four consecutive matches in the NPFL but have conceded the most this campaign. Peter Onuoha will continue up front, and hopefully, he’ll get another goal this season. 

Kun Khalifat FC Potential Starting Eleven (4-2-3-1)

Onuora—Ikechukwu, Lekan, Ameh, Akano—Onyedika, Amaefula—Emmanuel, Nwokorie, Olubode—Peter Onuoha

Head Coach: Uzoho Obinna 

Enyimba Aba (2nd)

Last five games: DWWDD

The Elephants have toned down a bit, sharing the spoils in their last two matches. On their ground against Rivers United, Enyimba Aba were nowhere near their best and could have lost their unbeaten run. The game started off with both teams threatening, although it was Enyimba Aba who wanted it more. The Elephants were denied a stonewall penalty, and their goal was chopped off for offside. The toothless stalemate was a terrible display from the Enyimba Aba attacking department. 

Despite their last two stalemates, Enyimba Aba are firing on all cylinders this campaign, and are one of the two sides yet to taste defeat. The Eastern-based team and two-time CAF Champions have picked up thirteen points from a combined twenty-one, scoring seven and conceding three. The Elephants have drawn twice and won a game on the road this campaign, and a win will boost their morale. 

Enyimba Aba Team News

Coach Stanley Eguma made three changes to the team that drew against Ikorodu City as he tries to shuffle his squad. Bassey was substituted after the break in what seems to be a minor injury, and Damini will probably fill in the spot. 

Enyimba Aba Potential Lineup (4-3-1-2)

Ogunga–Ezra, Peters, Hussania, Ogberewa–Nweke, Aboubakar, Ufere–Dimgba–Damini, Maduforo

Head coach: Stanley Egunma

Kun Khalifat vs Enyimba Aba FC match prediction 12 October 2025

Kun Khalifat are gradually settling in their environment, and after their recent away stalemate, they’ll be keen to secure the maximum possible points. Kun Khalifat have been pretty decent in front of goals, but are the weakest team when it comes to defending. Meanwhile, Enyimba Aba continues to set the pace in the NPFL, although they have drawn four of their previous seven games. 

Both teams will face off for the first time ever, and even though this game will be played on familiar ground, the hosts will struggle this time. Kun Khalifat have one of the worst defensive setups in the division, and they’ll get caught off guard so many times. Their last three games have produced more than two goals, and I expect this game to produce more goals. Enyimba Aba are well experienced in this Derby, and having already won on this ground last season, they’ll be poised to take all the points. 

My match prediction is for Enyimba Aba to win either half with a coefficient of 2.10 on the 1xbet bookmaker. 

My betting tip on this match is Enyimba Aba FC to win or draw and score more than a goal, for a coefficient of 2.65 on the Betway bookmaker.

My final betting tip is both teams to score for 2.45 on the Bet365 bookmaker. 

Good luck!
