Under Head Coach Nurudeen Aweroro, they’ve developed a strong rhythm, with a balanced approach and clear playing style. Their 2-0 win over Abia Warriors on Matchday 9 showed their progress, with solid attacking and defending. Currently in second place on the NPFL table, Shooting Stars aim to keep their momentum going and extend their unbeaten streak to six games. Defenders Desmond Ojietefian and Joshua Akpan are back in light training but need a few more weeks to be fully fit. Alex Aghahowa is still in rehab. Black Spider’ Mustapha Lawal is expected to stay in goal after strong performances. Midfielders Tijani Kabir and Tunde Azeez are also in line to start, adding composure and structure to Aweroro’s setup. Shooting Stars have been good at defense, and they didn't let any goals in during one game. But their recent play has been hit or miss.

On paper, it's a perfect balance, but it needs a spark. Their attack has scored six goals, all in NPFL games, which is an average of one goal per game. Sadiq Ibrahim is in charge of the team's creative fire with two goals. Mustapha Lawal keeps the game going behind him, even though he hasn't gotten an assist yet. In six games, Shooting Stars have given up six goals, which is the same number as they have scored. It's a team that has potential on both ends but needs to be more consistent in order to turn effort into dominance.

Wikki Tourist vs Shooting match prediction, 26th October 2025

Wikki Tourists' Coach Maikaba will probably pay a lot of attention to key players like Klinshak Longbak, who is very important for winning the ball and moving it around in midfield. Jonathan Mariga will connect play and make chances for the forward line, which is led by Lius Dadong, who will try to take advantage of mistakes made by the defense. Shooting Stars will stick to their style of play, which is based on possession and smart movement, width, and tempo. They will try to stay calm, make it hard for the other team to score, and take their chances. Wikki Tourists will probably set up with a tight defense to keep 3SC's midfield in check and quickly counter with their direct forwards. Coach Aweroro's goal is clear: stay organized, keep up the intensity, and keep the momentum going. Shooting Stars could stay among the league's best teams if they do well in Bauchi.
