Nasarawa vs BendelPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Nasarawa United are eighteenth on zero points after a 1-3 defeat away at Barau FC and begin their home campaign in Lafia. The rest of the sample tells a different story: a 1-1 with Ikorodu City, a 2-1 over Plateau United, a 2-2 away at Rivers United, a 3-0 away to Ejigbo City and another 0-3 loss to Barau FC. Bendel Insurance are sixth on 3 points after a 2-1 home win over Warri Wolves. Before that came a 3-3 with El Kanemi Warriors, a 3-1 over Crown FC, a 1-1 with Remo Stars, a 1-2 defeat away at Enugu Rangers and a 1-0 win over Katsina United. The six previous meetings are finely balanced: three wins for Nasarawa United, one of them a 1-0 on the road, one for Bendel Insurance and two draws. None of those games produced more than three goals in total. The NPFL averages 2.70 goals per game. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
