Enyimba have shown strong home form in recent weeks, winning their last two home games with six goals scored and two conceded. Warri Wolves have struggled heavily on their travels, failing to win any of their four away matches and scoring just one goal while failing to find the net in three of those trips. Although the visitors won the last two head-to-head encounters by 2-1 scorelines, their current road offensive output of 0.3 goals per game makes an away victory unlikely, giving Enyimba a solid probability of claiming at least a point.

Match preview
Enyimba enter round nine of the NPFL campaign sitting 19th in the standings with seven points from eight matches. Despite finding themselves in the relegation zone, their recent form in front of their home supporters has shown signs of recovery, with back-to-back home victories against Shooting Stars (4-2) and Plateau United (2-0).
Warri Wolves travel to Aba positioned 14th on ten points, having secured three victories across their eight league outings. Their success has been heavily reliant on home turf, as they remain winless on the road this season with one draw and three defeats, managing just a single goal across their four away fixtures.
While Warri Wolves won the most recent meeting between these two sides 2-1 in March 2026, their blunt attack on the road presents a significant hurdle. Enyimba will see this fixture as an opportunity to build on their home momentum and climb away from the bottom positions.
