NPFL Super Six Matchday 4 Preview: Lobi Stars seek to relive title defence with victory against Akwa United

Lobi Stars will be desperate to claim maximum points against Akwa United at the ongoing Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) Championship Playoffs at the Agege Stadium, Lagos on Monday, if they do not want to kiss continental football goodbye next season.

The Pride of Benue represented Nigeria in the Caf Champions League this year, but they have found the journey difficult during the season-ending tournament after their winning start against FC Ifeanyi Ubah.

They fell like a pack of badly arranged cards against Enugu Rangers and Enyimba and their chances of retaining the league title now hang in the balance, ahead of their must-win clash with Akwa United, who are equally not comfortable at the moment.
