Preview

Match preview

Nasarawa United enter round ten of the NPFL campaign sitting sixth in the standings with 14 points, just three points off the league summit. The hosts have established an imposing defensive baseline on their own ground this season, winning three and drawing one of their four home matches while conceding just a single goal. Their form is trending positively, having recorded three wins and a draw across their last four league fixtures.

Enyimba, by contrast, find themselves in 18th place within the relegation zone, having gathered eight points from nine games. The visitors have struggled to generate positive results away from home, remaining winless on their travels with one draw and three defeats from four road fixtures. Defensively, they have leaked eight goals across those four away trips, averaging two goals conceded per match.

Recent meetings between the two sides show competitive parity, including a 1-1 draw in their last encounter in January 2026. However, Nasarawa United have posted four consecutive clean sheets coming into this contest, whereas Enyimba have failed to score in two of their four away games. Nasarawa United's strong home stability gives them a substantial advantage heading into the clash.
