Nasarawa United vs Ikorodu City FC Prediction: The guests will likely get a goal here

Nasarawa United will square off against Ikorodu City FC in an attempt to return to winning ways at the Lafia City Stadium on Saturday. The guests who have failed to win any of their last four games on the road will be keen to secure the maximum points against their opponent. 

Nasarawa United (19th)

Last five matches: LWLWL

With two wins in seven games, Nasarawa United have been one of the worst teams in the division. They march here with a (1-0) loss against El Kanemi on the road. This time, they played really well, and we think they deserved a point at least. 

The Solid Miners have not been consistent lately, as they head here with twelve defeats in twenty-three games this season. They have picked up twenty-two points from a combined sixty-nine, scoring seventeen and conceding twenty-seven. 

The Solid Miners have managed six home wins since promotion, and with Anas Yusuf back in form, they’ll surely be at their best. 

Ikorodu City (7th)

Last five games: WLWLW

Nurudeen Aweroro's men returned to winning ways as they defeated Kwara United on their ground. Like they used to, Ikorodu City started strong but conceded with just a minute, however, they responded six minutes later. The second half began with Ikorodu City asking lots of questions, and they finally got a winner in the 64th minute. 

The Lagos-based team and newly promoted Ikorodu City are gradually adapting to their new environment as they sit in the seventh spot on the log. They have picked up thirty-four points from a combined sixty-nine and are four points from playing continental football next season. 

They have lost seven, drawn three, and won once over their previous eleven away matches.

Nasarwa United have won twice and lost once against Ikorodu City in their last three meetings. Ikorodu City have been a strong side at home this campaign, but two of their home losses have come against Nasarawa United. The reverse leg was a disappointing performance from Ikorodu City, who failed to take their chances in a (1-2) loss against Nasarawa United at home.
