After league round 1 it's Remo Stars - Heartland 3-1 in points. Who will achieve victory in this second Npfl match of the season?

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.

Heartland form and stats

Let's have a look at how Heartland performed last season in the Npfl: They landed a 13th position in the league table after playing out 13 victories, 9 draws and 16 defeats. In total they scored 43 and conceded 50 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 3 and lost 14 with 15/36 goals scored/conceded.

There were no winners in Heartland's previous match, a Npfl home game that ended 3-3 vs Nasarawa United (placed 6th). As you can tell from the result, the match against Nasarawa United was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Kano Pillars.
