2348
On Wednesday afternoon, league leaders Plateau United host Kwara United at the Jos International Stadium, as the home side look to consolidate their position at the top of the Nigerian top-flight.
Plateau United have been in impressive form heading into this clash. The home side are top of the table, four points clear of second-place Rivers United. They are currently nine games unbeaten in the NPFL.
They head into this clash on the back of a three-game winning run in the Nigerian top-flight. Last time out, Plateau recorded a 2-1 home win over Nasarawa United.
Their recent league matches have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their last eight games in the NPFL.
Plateau United are formidable on home soil, as they are 18 NPFL home games unbeaten, having recorded 15 victories. The home side has been prolific on home soil of late in the Nigerian top-flight, scoring at least twice in four of their last five outings. At the other end of the pitch, they have conceded just twice in their last eight home league games.
Kwara United are currently in the relegation zone in the NPFL, but the fight for survival is a tight one, as they are only in the drop zone courtesy of an inferior goal difference to the three teams above them. An unlikely win here could be enough to move the visitors up to 13th place in the table.
A record of just one league win in their last seven outings has hindered their chances of surviving the drop this season.
