Match analysis
Ikorodu City have not won away in their last two trips, drawing 2-2 at Abia Warriors and 0-0 at Rivers United. Against two wins from Bendel Insurance's last three home games, Superior projects a 1-0 scoreline for this NPFL meeting on 23 September, with 1-1 the alternative.
Bendel Insurance have taken seven points from their last three home games
Bendel Insurance have won two of their last three at home, beating Kun Khalifat FC 4-2 and Warri Wolves 2-1, with a 1-1 draw against Warri Wolves between. Seven points from three home matches, and goals in every one, is the base for Superior's projected 1-0.
Ikorodu City have drawn both of their last two away games
Ikorodu City's away form tells the other half: a 2-2 draw at Abia Warriors and a 0-0 draw at Rivers United, no wins and just two goals scored across both. That travel form is the main reason Superior does not project Ikorodu to leave with more than a share of the goals.
Bendel Insurance have conceded in every one of their last five matches
The number working against a clean 1-0 is Bendel's own record: they have conceded in every one of their last five, including single goals in three of the four they still won. Ikorodu have scored in three of their last five too. If Bendel's leaky pattern continues and Ikorodu convert one chance, the 1-1 alternative becomes the more likely shape.
