Following the completion of State FA cup finals across the country, action will resume on Tuesday in the Nigeria Premier Football League.
The first game of the match day 28 is scheduled to take place on Tuesday between Gombe United and Remo Stars at the Pantami Stadium.
The Sky Blues Boys will want to capitalize on the dip form of the home team to get at least a draw from the game.
Gombe United secured away in the last match against local rival Doma United and a win against Remo Stars will surely boost their confidence in retaining their elite status.
Akwa United will want to consolidate on their away win when they host Doma United at the Goodswill Akpabio stadium in Uyo.
The Promise Keepers surprisingly secured an away win against Plateau United on match day 27 in Jos.
Getting a win against Doma United who has been on a downward spiral recently should not be a stress.
Sporting Lagos will have their hands full on Wednesday when they host second-placed Lobi Stars.
The Pride of Benue will want to return to the apex of the league after surrendering it to Rangers last week.
After having a tumultuous moment, the Lagos-based team seems to have regained their old form but must be on guard to stop the attacking threat of the away side.
Champions Enyimba International will host Kano Pillars at home on Wednesday and the return of their coach Finidi George and goalkeeper Ojo Olorunleke will serve as enough motivation for the team.
Assistant coach Yemi Olarenwaju will not be on the sideline for this game due to suspension and Pillars will aim for at least a draw in this game.
The Aba Millionaire should watch out for the double Umar in Pillars team whose goals have propelled the team
Leader Rangers will have to secure a full point against Sunshine Stars in Enugu if they are not ready to relinquish the number one spot.
The Akure Gunners have improved a bit since the appointment of Kennedy Boboye as the team coach but getting a draw in Enugu this time will look like a win for them.
In Ibadan, Shooting Stars will target a return to winning ways when they face Kwara United.
After 5 games unbeaten, the Oluyole Warriors suffered a 1-2 defeat to Niger Tornadoes last week.
All eyes will still be on Christian Pyagbara who has scored for the Ibadan Warlord in 4 consecutive matches.
