There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the Npfl table so far. Here's the Abia Warriors - Ifeanyi Uba latest:
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Abia Warriors and Ifeanyi Uba.
Abia Warriors form and stats
Abia Warriors have performed here this season with 4 wins from 7 Npfl matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 3 games and lost 0.
B. Lukman was the last player to score a league goal for Abia Warriors and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Abia Warriors haven't scored in 273 minutes.
The fans are hoping that Abia Warriors will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Npfl game against Heartland (placed 11th). The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Kano Pillars.
The manager will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Enugu Rangers in only four days.
Abia Warriors are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 7 games. As for guarding their own goal, Abia Warriors have only let in 3 goals at home.

Bitter travels for Ifeanyi Uba as they have lost six games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the MFM match.
The supporters enjoyed Ifeanyi Uba's previous game versus Warri Wolves (placed 12th), a Npfl 3-1 win played at home. Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Enugu Rangers's place.
A quick return to home after this game, as Ifeanyi Uba are hosting Enyimba in the Npfl only four days away.
