Bendel Insurance vs Kwara United Prediction: Visiting Kwara will take a point in this game

Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium will host the Nigeria Professional Football League encounter between Bendel Insurance and Kwara United. The last time these two teams met, both teams settled for a 1-1 draw. Will there be a winner in this one?

Bendel Insurance's last league game was against Rangers International, and they lost. In that game, Bendel Insurance could only reduce their deficit after going three goals behind in the 54th minute. However, their goals from Nnamdi Anthony and Uche Collins were not enough to see them take a point at the end of full-time. Bendel Insurance have suffered defeats in four of their last five encounters, their best result being a win over Sunshine Stars.

Kwara United are coming off a win over Plateau United and will hope to be at their best again. In that encounter, two first-half strikes from Emmanuel Ogbole were enough to seal maximum points for Kwara United. However, Kwara United have won two consecutive league games, the first against Nasarawa United. In their last five matches, Kwara United suffered only one defeat, a 2-1 encounter against Akwa United. This team drew Rangers International and El Kanemi Warriors in that run, extending their record to 17 points from 12 games. 

Bendel Insurance are far from winning a league game, and I do not expect anything from them. While Kwara United have been playing well, being on the road should not be an issue, looking at the fact they picked a win on the road the last time out. Bendel Insurance should give this game there all, but I am not convinced they can pick a win. Bet on the visiting team to take a point while both teams score in a game that could end in a draw.
