NPFL Opening Weekend: Rangers, Enyimba, Sporting Lagos and Ikorodu City Face Early Tests
The new NPFL season begins with several clubs under early pressure to make a strong statement. Champions Rangers host Katsina United in Abeokuta, while Enyimba travel to face Niger Tornadoes after narrowly avoiding relegation last season. Promoted Sporting Lagos begin their campaign away to Doma United in Gombe, looking to back up their coach’s claim that the club can compete with any side. Ikorodu City host Ranchers Bees at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena after an unconvincing run of recent league results. Rivers United and coach Finidi George also start at home against Plateau United. After losing last season’s title race on the final day, Rivers will hope to set the tone for another challenge with a convincing opening result.
