Dakkada vs Abia Warriors NPFL Match Preview
The duel between Dakkada FC and Abia Warriors will be an important decider for the hosts. The hosts currently sit last on the league table but only six points shy of survival places. Eight games to go means Dakkada still has a chance to mount a strong survival quest. While the hosts have also performed dismally away from home, drawing once and losing 14 in 15 trips thus far hence collecting just 1pt in those games, Dakkada’s home run inspire some hopes.
The hosts have collected 32 points from 15 home games, which translate to at least two points from home games. If that is something to rely on, then it is unlikely that they will lose this game. On the other hand, Abia Warriors have won just one away game after 15 trips, drawing twice and losing 12 games.
Away team must improve to get a point here even though the challenge of defeating Dakkada FC for the first time is another twist to this NPFL fixture. Most importantly, Dakkada will rely on their good home run to bag the three points or get at least a point. We don't see the hosts losing this game.
