Enyimba enters this match with a mixed bag of recent results. They have demonstrated solid form at home, winning four out of their last five matches, including a convincing 3-0 victory over Katsina United. With an average of 2.00 goals scored per game at home and a defense conceding just 0.60, their home ground has been a fortress.

They have lost all their last five away matches, managing to score a meager 0.20 goals per game while conceding an average of 2.60. Their last match ended in a heavy 3-0 defeat to Kwara United, highlighting their difficulties in finding the net and maintaining a solid defense away from home. Similar to their opponents, El Kanemi Warriors have no players sidelined due to injuries or suspensions, which gives them a chance to try and turn their fortunes around.

Historically, encounters between these two sides have been closely contested, with Enyimba having a slight edge in recent head-to-head meetings, winning three of the last five matches.
