Rivers United will welcome leaders Enugu Rangers to the Yakubu Gowon Stadium on Sunday in a much anticipated league tie.

The Pride of Rivers are currently 7th on the log and they have played one stalemate, won six and lost six games already in the campaign.

Nevertheless, a win for Rivers could push them to the top five. This further underlines the fixture as one of the most important games Stanley Eguma’s side will partake in this season as it would ideally kick-start their proceedings in the league.

Everything has fallen into place for coach Imama Amakpakabo and Rangers. The Flying Antelopes are on top of the ladder with 27 points from a possible 39.
