Akwa United vs Remo Stars: Free Tips and Predictions
Akwa United is 8th and six points shy of top three while Remo Stars are fourth and only a point shy of Confederations Cup qualifying spot. Who will win the game on Sunday? Our best free predictions for this game are:
Under 2.5 goals
We don’t expect lots of goals in this game. Both sides have found goals hard to come by based on their recent performances. For example, Akwa United scored only one goal in their last five games. On the other hand, Remo Stars scored four from their last five assignments. The two teams have also seemed to get stronger defensively based on recent performances. While Akwa United kept three clean sheets in the last five league matches, Remo Stars had two clean sheets in as many assignments. Two of the only three previous meetings had fewer than 3 goals.
Draw at half-time
We expect no breakthrough in the first half of this game. The fact that both teams are struggling to score goals is another reason we expect no winner at the interval. For Akwa United, a team that is rated the third-worst home team in the league so far, defending againts Remo Stars will be top priority and with that, the first half could be goalless.

Akwa United vs Remo Stars NPFL Fixture Preview
Akwa hasn’t done well on home soil. The hosts are ranked as the third-worst team in home performance. Interestingly, every team seems to do well at home because even with 9 wins, 6 draws and just one loss at home, Akwa United hasn’t been competitive enough on home record. The fact that Akwa United has drawn six times at home should be a focal point ahead of this fixture, especially against a team like Remo Stars that is ranked 6th on home performance and third on away run. The visitors have won twice, drawn 6 and lost 8 of their 16 away games so far. Notably, both teams have drawn six games home and away respectively.
We expect a tough encounter in this fourth meeting between these teams, especially defensively. Inability to score many goals is another factor in this game and with that; this could end with fewer than three goals at full-time.
