Brand new|Fresh|New season, fresh|new potential|opportunities: Here's what you should|need to|must know before the Enugu Rangers - Niger Tornadoes game!
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artifical turf and that the visiting Niger Tornadoes have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artifical turf is 2-2-7 (win-draw-loss) from eleven matches.
It's no vacation for neither Enugu Rangers nor Niger Tornadoes as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
