Ikorodu City will host Enugu Rangers at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena on Sunday in a meeting between a home side seeking momentum and the reigning champions. Kick-off is scheduled for 3pm. Rangers enter the match unbeaten in their last four games, recording three wins and one draw during that run.
The champions returned to Onikan in midweek and defeated Ranchers Bees 1-0. They also beat Ikorodu City 2-1 on the final day of last season to secure the title, with both goals scored by Chidiebere Nwobodo. Ikorodu City sit 12th in the table with five points.
Their last four results are one win, two draws and one defeat, with the latest a 2-1 loss away to Bendel Insurance. The hosts remain unbeaten at home this season and will look to turn that record into points against Rangers. The visitors, meanwhile, will seek to maintain their positive form away from home.
The match gives both teams an early opportunity to strengthen their position, with Ikorodu City needing improvement after their recent away defeat and Rangers attempting to protect their unbeaten sequence.
