Heartland vs Akwa United Free Tips and Predictions
The last game didn’t have a winner as it ended 0-0, so this second duel of the season presents each side with a chance to bag the three points. Our best three predictions for the NPFL fixture as follows:
Heartland Owerri to win
We have tipped Heartland Owerri to get the three points in this game. The hosts haven’t lost at home in the last ten home assignments. They won all the last four home games. On the flip-side, Akwa United have failed to win a match in their last 8 trips. A big worry for Akwa ahead of this game in poor scoring form away from home having scored only one goal in their last 5 trips.
No goals on both ends
We don’t expect goals on both sides of the pitch. We premise this tip on the fact that Akwa seems to be okay with just any draw away from home. The visitors found the net only once in their last five away matches and with no win in their last 8 away assignments, things could get complicated for Akwa against Heartland in this game.

Heartland vs Akwa United NPFL Fixture Preview
The reverse fixture between Heartland and Akwa United didn’t have a winner. This second meeting of the season is, therefore, a chance for either side to bag the three points. However, the chances for Akwa are limited, especially after some uninspiring performances on the road lately. The visitors scored just a goal in their last 5 away games and didn’t win in their last 8 trips.
On the other hand, Heartland Owerri won their last four home games and hopes to secure three points in this 32nd game of the 2022 NPFL season. However, the hosts are ranked the third-worst home team, so we don’t expect a massive win for the home team. Heartland has bagged 9W, 4D and 2L on home soil. On the flip-side, the visitors have 2W, 6D and 7L away from home. While Akwa’s away record is ranked 5th, the visitors have done well at home, so another loss could compound their miseries in a season that is almost over.
