Shooting Stars vs Abia Warriors Prediction: Oluyole Boys Hopeful of getting things right

In week 15 of the Nigeria Professional Football League, Shooting Stars will play Abia Warriors at the Lekan Salami Stadium. The two teams are playing at the same level with the same points after week 13. Which side wins here?

Shooting Stars

Shooting Stars' last league game was against Remo Stars, and they suffered a defeat. In a match that ended 2-0, Shooting Stars conceded in each half, with Alimi Sikiru and Olamilekan Adedayo netting for their opponent. In the meantime, Shooting Stars have lost three times in recent matches, two other encounters against Niger Tornadoes and Ikorodu City. In their games against Bayelsa United and El Kanemi, this team secured maximum points, ending 1-0 and 3-0, respectively. 

Abia Warriors

Abia Warriors returned to winning ways the previous time out and will look to continue from where they stopped. In a game that ended 2-0, Abia Warriors scored in each half, with Ijoma Antonie putting them in the lead before a second-half Adejoh Ojonugwa strike. However, prior to that win, Abia Warriors lost to Heartland, Lobi Stars, and Rivers United, while they drew Enyimba. With 18 points, Abia Warriors sit 11th spot in the standings, scoring 12 goals while conceding 15. 

Expert Betting Tips

I will gladly back Shooting Stars in this game despite the fact I expect this game to be very tough. While the Abia Warriors have been the dominant side in this fixture, Shooting Stars' performances in recent times seem to have improved, and I trust that they will get the job done. On the other hand, while both teams' defences have been poor this season, this game could be a low-scoring one.
