The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Kano Pillars are in the 12th position while the guesting Adamawa United worry at 19th.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
