Onigbinde said that either a win or draw in Kaduna would consolidate their chances of going far in the league.
He expressed optimism in the ability of his team to repeat a win over Kaduna United on their soil on Sunday.
“My players can do it again in Kaduna because they are better and talented to keep our hopes alive in the league having won the first leg here in Abuja,” Onigbinde said.
