NPFL: Plateau United target three points against Remo Stars

Though there are just two Matchdays left to the end of the season, no team is guaranteed the NPFL championship playoffs ticket with MatchDay 17 star match being the Group A tie between Plateau United and Remo Stars in Jos; while the South South derby between Rivers United and Bayelsa United in Port Harcourt headlines the fixtures in Group B.

In other Group A games, Kwara United tackles Nasarawa United in Akure knowing a win for them at home will confirm their topflight status for another season while the Solid Miners would bid the NPFL bye if they fail to get a positive result.

Akwa United will hope to return to winning ways with a home duel against already demoted El Kanemi Warriors in Uyo while Enyimba will go in the hunt for a home win against Gombe United.

A win will keep the peoples Elephants in second spot but another home draw could see them relying on other results on the final day to secure the Super Six ticket.

Meanwhile, Bendel Insurance will stake their unbeaten record against Shooting Stars who have little at stake than to end the season with a bang.

Insurance will, however, qualify for the Championship playoffs if they beat the Oluyole Warriors at the dreaded Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin City.

In Group B, Rivers United will confirm their Super Six spot with a home game against Bayelsa United .

The Pride of Rivers have slid to the fourth spot with 23 points but can stay a claim with three games at hand.

At the Pantami Stadium, Doma United will pray to continue their dream season against Rangers International.

The newly promoted side is second with 25 points and another win in Gombe will just take them closer to the Super Six.
