Doma United FC - Sporting Lagos FC predictions and free betting tips [04/03/2024]

Doma United and Sporting Lagos will play tomorrow in the Nigerian Football League.

Doma United

In the current season of the Nigerian Professional Football League, Doma United occupies the 8th position, having accumulated 32 points after 22 games. The team's recent results are concerning, with four losses and one draw in the last five matches. This downturn has seen them drop from medal contention to mid-table, now seven points behind the fourth-placed team, Remo Stars, who led the championship for three consecutive months. Since December, Doma United has managed only three victories out of ten matches, all at home, defeating Kano Pillars, Heartland, and Katsina with a collective score of 4:0.

In their latest matches, the team lost to Bayelsa United 0:2, Enugu 0:1, was defeated by Rivers United 2:3, drew with Rivers United 1:1, and suffered a defeat against Abia Warriors 0:3. These results highlight the team's struggles to maintain consistency and effectiveness, especially in away games, threatening their position in the upper part of the NPFL table.

Sporting Lagos

Sporting Lagos, in the current season of the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL), is in 13th place, having gained 27 points after 22 rounds. Following a prolonged streak of eight matches without a win since December, the team has shown significant improvement, securing three victories in the last five matches. This resurgence has allowed Sporting Lagos to escape the relegation zone and move to mid-table, a considerable achievement given the tight competition in the league.

In recent games, Sporting Lagos has shown improved results: a victory over Akwa 2:1, a loss to Gombe 0:2, but subsequent wins over Bendel and Rivers United, both with a minimal score of 1:0. However, in the match against Bendel, the team experienced a defeat with a score of 1:3. These outcomes underscore the importance of home matches for Sporting Lagos in their fight to stay in the league and the potential to continue climbing the table.

Head-to-Head 

In the only face-to-face encounter, the teams played a 0:0 draw in the first round.

Match prediction for Doma United - Sporting Lagos

The guests have been promoted to Nigeria's top league this year and have now escaped the relegation zone for the first time in the last three months. I'll try a bet on Sporting Lagos's positive handicap, which may lose by one goal but could take an important point in the survival fight against Doma in a winless streak.
