Today in the Nigerian Premier League, "Remo Stars" will play against the already relegated "Heartland."

Remo Stars

"Remo Stars" are fighting for medals and theoretically even for the championship in the Nigerian Premier League (NPFL). The team has played 35 official matches in the championship and has earned 59 points, which allows them to occupy the 3rd place in the league table. With a few rounds left until the end of the season, "Remo Stars" have real chances to finish among the medalists, trailing "Enugu" by 5 points and being level with last season's champions "Enyimba."

At the moment, "Remo Stars" have 3 victories in their last 5 matches. The team lost matches against another top-3 contender "Lobi Stars" in the last round with a score of 2:3 and to the outsider "Kwara." "Remo Stars" still need to secure their top-3 position by the end of the 2023-2024 season. Currently, "Remo Stars" have a 3-point advantage over their nearest competitors "Shooting Stars." In the last 5 matches, "Remo Stars" have suffered only 2 defeats and celebrated victories in the remaining matches.

On 1 June 2024, "Remo Stars" defeated "Kano Pillars" with a score of 2:1. On 6 May 2024, the team won against "Rivers United" with a score of 2:1. On 26 April 2024, "Remo Stars" won against "Niger Tornadoes" with a score of 3:0.

Heartland

From the start of the season, "Heartland" has been in the relegation zone and, with 5 rounds left, finally lost their chances of staying in the NPFL. Despite this, the team continued to fight, winning 3 of their last five matches. At the moment, "Heartland" has played 35 matches, with 8 victories, 11 draws, and 16 defeats, with a goal difference of 34:42 and 35 points.

In recent rounds, "Heartland" defeated the second relegated team "Gombe" with a score of 3:0 and sensationally took 3 points in a match against "Shooting Stars," who are in 4th place and fighting for medals. In the last round, "Heartland" beat "Doma United" with a score of 3:1 and did not allow them to escape the relegation zone.

Head-to-Head 

In the last 3 head-to-head meetings, "Heartland" won one match with a score of 3:1 on 28 December 2023, one game ended in a 0:0 draw on 12 April 2022, and "Remo Stars" won one match with a score of 3:0 on 26 December 2021.

Match Prediction: Remo Stars vs Heartland

"Remo Stars" have excellent chances for medals despite losses to "Lobi Stars" and "Kwara." In recent matches, the team has shown good results, defeating "Kano Pillars," "Rivers United," and "Niger Tornadoes." The battle for the top-3 will be intense, and "Remo Stars" need to maintain their current form to stay among the leaders.

"Heartland," despite being relegated for a long time, fights against all opponents, actively intervening in the battles for medals and against relegation. "Remo Stars" need a win desperately, but the visitors will clearly not give up easily. I predict a total of more than 2.5 goals.
