Sunshine Stars vs Nasarawa Betting Odds and Stats
Sunshine Stars are 8th on the league table while Nasarawa are ranked 13th. This duel will be the second this season after a 1-1 draw in the reverse game. This is how we have tipped these teams to perform in this game:
Under 2.5 goals
There has been a problem on both sides when it comes to scoring goals. Sunshine Stars scored only four goals in the last ten games and two in the last five. While the visitors boast a better scoring record of 12 games in as many run of previous games, Sunshine Stars boast a strong defence ahead of this game. The hosts have 6 clean sheets in the last ten matches while the visitors have only two clean sheets in their last ten games. Nasarawa may have a better scoring record in this match but losing all their last 9 games is reason enough to believe they will have problems scoring against Sunshine Stars.
Sunshine Stars to win
We are backing Sunshine Stars to win the game. They have been stronger defensively and done better on home soil. The hosts kept a clean sheet in all their last three home games in the NPFL and won three of them.

Sunshine Stars vs Nasarawa United Game Preview and Analysis
Sunshine Stars boast a strong defensive record at home ahead of this matchup against Nasarawa United. The hosts kept six clean sheets in their last six home games and won four of the assignments. Such a strong showing in front of home fans is why we expect this game to end in favour of the hosts despite being historically the weaker side in this game. For example, in 13 previous meetings with Nasarawa, Sunshine Stars bagged three wins, drew four and lost six games.
Now, when we look at how Nasarawa has performed on the road, getting three points in this trip will be a tall order. Nine consecutive losses in the last 9 away games are not by design. The visitors have been poor away from home this season, winning none of their 15 away matches so far. In 15 trips, Nasarawa United bagged just three draws and lost 12 games.
On the flipside, Sunshine Stars have the fifth-best home run of 12 wins, 3 draws and only one loss.
