Only a few games have been played in the Npfl so far, with Warri Wolves placed 7th and Rivers United sitting in the 9th position.
It's no vacation for neither Warri Wolves nor Rivers United 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.
Warri Wolves form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Warri Wolves's two home games in the Npfl so far this season, having collected 4 points.
The home team returns after sharing the points with MFM (placed 4th) on their last time out; the Npfl game ended 1-1. Ahead of that match, Warri Wolves won a home game hosting Adamawa United (2-0).
