This could be an interesting match as Katsina United have their presumed home advantage while Enugu Rangers are ahead 6 points in the Npfl table.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago. Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game! Enugu Rangers 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.
