Enyimba’s head coach, Yemi Olanrewaju, is preparing for a challenging encounter as his team faces off against Remo Stars in what is set to be the most anticipated match of the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) this weekend, according to JOINTEARN reports.

The two title contenders will meet in a high-stakes clash, with Remo Stars currently sitting in second place on the NPFL table, while Enyimba trails just behind in third. Both teams have been in strong form, and this match promises to be a crucial one in the race for the title.

Remo Stars stunned Enyimba with a 1-0 victory in Aba last season, and they will be eager to replicate that result as they aim to solidify their position at the top. Olanrewaju is well aware of the threat posed by the visitors and has acknowledged the tough battle that lies ahead.

Speaking about the importance of the fixture, Olanrewaju said, “We know the significance of playing against Remo Stars. They are a tough and top-tier club, and every encounter with them is always a challenge. It’s like a derby—intense and competitive. But this is our home game, and we want to enjoy it while fighting for the three points.”

He continued, “We understand that it’s going to be a difficult contest. We respect Remo Stars as a formidable team, and we expect them to show us the same respect. On the field, both teams know what’s at stake, and we will be giving our all to secure the win.”
