Seconds
Competition: Nigeria Npfl
Date: Sun 26.May
Match begins: 15:00 (UTC)

This could be an interesting match as Katsina United have their presumed home advantage while Enyimba are ahead 3 points in the Npfl table.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Enyimba have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 0-6-4 (win-draw-loss) from ten matches. It's quite the trip for Enyimba when visiting Katsina United as the cities are 1100 kilometers apart.
