Rivers United vs Enyimba Prediction: Home turf will be a huge advantage for Rivers United

Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium will be the venue for this round 4 NPFL encounter between Rivers United and Enyimba. The two teams are coming off a win. How will they approach this game?

Rivers United

Rivers United played Lobi Stars on the road the previous time out and secured a 0-1 win. In that game, Kabir Abdullahi’s strike in the second half was the difference, giving Rivers United maximum points. In the meantime, Rivers United won two of their first three matches of the season, one against Heartland. However, their opening day game against Bendel Insurance ended in a goalless draw.

Enyimba

Enyimba played Lobi Stars last time out, and they secured a 2-1 win. In that game, two first-half goals from Chinedu Ufere and Ekwutozian Eze were enough to seal maximum points for Enyimba. However, Enyimba have an unbeaten run of games, extending to five. In that run, Enyimba secured four wins while playing to a draw with Etoile Filante. This season, Enyimba have accumulated six points, positioning them 5th. 

Expert Betting Tips

Rivers United should win this game as they have in the past at home. While Enyimba have been very strong in recent weeks, I still do not see them pulling a win on the road in this one. Also, with the two teams attacking very sharply, I expect goals in this game from the two ends.
