The reverse fixture of this match saw Coach Fidelis Ilechukwu and his wards claiming  a vital away point after a goalless draw in match day 18 encounter decided at the Ifeanyi Ubah Stadium.

Having played 35 league matches so far this season, MFM FC managed to win 11, draw 9 and lost 15. The hosts currently sit on the 17th position on the log with 42 points while the visitors occupy  the 3rd spot on the standings with 56 points from the same number of games.

Coach Ilechukwu’s men are going into this game with a victorious mindset because anything short of victory in this tie will put an end to their stay in the Nigerian Professional Football League.

MFM FC goalkeeper, Folarin Abayomi whose brilliant performance in between the sticks in the first fixture earned his team a commendable result may start ahead of Egbe Ospino with dependable defender, Opara Austine leading the defence line against Rapheal Everton’s fire power in Ismaila Gata, Seka Pascal, Jimoh Oni and Mohammed Suleiman.

Former under 20 midfielder Ifeanyi Ifeanyi, Onuwa Chukwuka, Oladele Oshobe, Kenedinum Nelson and Alashe Sherif will attempt to win the  battle in the middle of the park and provide the needed assist for the strikers upfront.

Ilechuckwu’s attacking qualities in Sikiru Olatunbosun, Austine Ogunye, Stephen Odey, Chijoke Akuneto, Adekunle Adegboyega, Isah Akor and Newman Musa who are capable of firing from all cylinders will be put to test against  the Nnewi based goalkeeper Ikechukwu Ezenwa as they seek to end their first ever campaign in the NPFL with a triumphant finish.
