Against all expectations, Bayelsa United suffered a surprise 1-2 home loss on the match day and the club coach Tebowei Deprieye focused on the maximum point.
After suffering a defeat to Rangers at the Awka city stadium last weekend, Tornadoes will aim to bounce back strongly against the Yenogoa-based club.

The Naze Millionaire secured a vital draw against Sunshine Stars of Akure and will want to consolidate on that against Katsina United.
Katsina United on their part missed numerous scoring chances against Lobi Stars in the match day 3 as the game ended in a scoreless affair.
Kano Pillars will have their hands full when they confront Rivers United, the Mai Su Gida boys suffered a 1-0 defeat to Abia Warrior and will bank on the experience of its skipper Rabiu Ali to return to the winning ways .
Rivers United surprised their fans last weekend after they failed to beat visiting Kwara United at the Adoke Amasiamaka stadium.
All eyes will be on the team captain Nyima Nwagua, inform attacker Alex Oyowah and Liberia International Alex Kovah to deliver the goals.
Still basking in the euphoria of their away win against Bayelsa United, Remo Stars will be willing to break the unbeaten record of the newly promoted side Sporting Lagos when both sides meet at the Ikenne Stadium.
