Football tips: Enyimba vs Wikki Tourist - predictions and betting guide

It's no vacation for neither Enyimba nor Wikki Tourist 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.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Wikki Tourist have a different surface at their stadium (artificial turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 4-5-16 (win-draw-loss) from 25 matches. Wikki Tourist have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
