Remo Stars - Bendel Insurance FC predictions and free betting tips [24/03/2024]

Remo Stars and Bendel Insurance will play today as part of the Nigerian Premier League.

Remo Stars 

Remo Stars continues to show inconsistent results, losing their spot in the top 3 and the league leadership after three losses in the last five matches, dropping the team to 5th place in the championship. Despite this, victories over Bayelsa United and last season's champion Enyimba in the recent games have helped narrow the gap to four points from the league leader, Lobi Stars, with Remo Stars accumulating 42 points after 25 rounds. The team has achieved 13 wins, 3 draws, and 9 losses, with a goal difference of 30:24.

Since January, Remo Stars' recent matches have shown the following outcomes: a significant win over Enyimba with a 1:0 score on March 13th, a defeat to Sporting Lagos with a 1:4 score on March 10th, a home victory over Bayelsa United with a 1:0 score on March 2nd, a loss to Enugu with a 0:1 score on February 28th, a draw with Abia Warriors on February 18th, and a win over the same team with a 2:1 score on January 21st. In the last round, the team lost to Shooting Stars, which is 7th in the NPFL, with a 0:2 score.

Bendel Insurance

Bendel, currently in 9th place in the current season of the Nigerian Premier League, has collected 37 points after 26 games. This result leaves the team 7 points behind Plateau United, who are in fourth place and competing for high positions in the league. Recent performances by Bendel have not been too successful for a team looking to improve its standings. Among the teams in the top half of the table, Bendel has shown one of the weakest series of results, winning only 2 out of the last 5 games and suffering 3 defeats.

This period has been particularly challenging for Bendel, with the team achieving only one notable victory against Sporting Lagos with a 3:1 score. This win was a bright spot against the backdrop of other matches in which Bendel was unable to show effective gameplay and remained goalless.

In recent games, Bendel shows an unstable form: they defeated Doma United with a significant score of 4:0, suffered a defeat to Akwa United with a 1:3 score, then overcame Gombe United 2:0, lost to Plateau United 0:2, and were beaten by Shooting Stars with a minimal score of 0:1. These outcomes underline the team's inconsistency in the current season.

Head-to-head 

In the last 5 head-to-head encounters, Bendel Insurance has 2 wins and 2 draws against 1 win by Remo Stars. In the first round match of the current season, Bendel Insurance won with a 1:0 score.

Match prediction for Remo Stars - Bendel Insurance

Based on recent results, Bendel doesn't seem worse off than Remo, I'm betting on a positive handicap for the visitors, expecting that the mid-table Nigerian league team won't lose big and might even snag some points.
