Wikki Tourists beat Shooting Stars 2-0 in Bauchi, ending their five-game unbeaten streak. In the meantime, Plateau United came back from a tough loss to beat Enyimba in a thrilling Matchday 10 game. Wikki Tourists played one of their best games of the season at the Tafawa Balewa Stadium. Abdullahi Usman scored the first goal in the 31st minute, and Jonathan Mairiga scored the last goal in the 42nd minute with a flip. Wikki hadn't won since September 7, when they beat Katsina United. They got 12 points from 10 games with the win. They have gotten into a good rhythm with strong attacking and defending under coach Nurudeen Aweroro. Their 2-0 victory over the Abia Warriors on Matchday 9 showed how far they had come. Shooting Stars, who are now in second place, want to keep their unbeaten streak going for six games. Defenders Desmond Ojietefian and Joshua Akpan are back in light training, but they will need a few more weeks to get back to full strength. Alex Aghahowa is still in the hospital. Mustapha Lawal, also known as the "Black Spider," is expected to stay in goal after some strong games. Tijani Kabir and Tunde Azeez, who play in the middle of the field, could start and help the team stay steady. Shooting Stars have played well on defense, even keeping a clean sheet in one game. But their recent form has been all over the place.
