NPFL: Shooting Stars coach Ogunbote anticipates tough duel vs Akwa United

Shooting Stars technical adviser, Gbenga Ogunbote, has admitted that the matchday 29 fixture against Akwa United will be tough.

Shooting Stars will square up with Akwa United at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Sunday.

Ogunbote tasked his players to be ready for a difficult battle.

“We are here to get things back on track. If we get the result here, we will go up again, and once we do that, we are not coming down again,” Ogunbote stated in his address to the players.

“We will be facing a team that is desperately fighting to survive relegation, so you expect that they will come out against us, using every means.

“I want you to see this match as a home match, play as if we are playing at home. We have a good pitch to play on, and we are equally hungry to get a positive result.”

The Oluyole Warriors will be hoping to return to winning ways after a six-game winless run.
