Plateau United host Rivers United FC on Sunday, Jan 17 at 4:00 PM in a top-four clash that could have significant title implications. Both sides are separated by just 1 point in the NPFL, making this one of the more consequential fixtures of the season.
Plateau United come into this fixture in good form (3W 1D 1L recently). Rivers United FC travel drawing too many games (3D in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
Despite playing at home, Plateau United face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Rivers United FC have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Plateau United won 0–2.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Plateau United a slight edge, but Rivers United FC are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
