Enyimba vs Bendel Insurance Betting Tips - Under 2.5 Goals

Enyimba return to action this week after recording yet another draw in their most recent NPFL contest against Plateau United last week. Yemi Daniel Olanrewaju´s side were held to a goalless share of the points, making it eight draws from their last ten league matches. 

Since October, five of Enyimba´s last six home games finished level, including each of their last four matches at Enyimba International Stadium. Three of their four most recent home draws all finished with the same 0:0 scoreline.

Now winless in their last nine league matches, a lack of attacking firepower has proven a major concern for the home side. Enyimba scored only four goals across their last nine winless fixtures. As a result, seven of those games also saw under 3.5 goals scored. 

Bendel Insurance make the trip to Aba in decent form after extending their unbeaten run to four matches with a 1:0 win against Lobi Stars ten days ago. Isaac Annor´s late goal secured a third successive home win for Monday Odigie´s side.

Low-scoring outcomes have been frequent in previous meetings between these sides. Under 2.5 goals was scored in six of seven encounters since 2019. 

With Enyimba struggling for goals, I expect another low-scoring matchup in Aba, so I'm putting my money on under 2.5 goals scored at the Enyimba International Stadium. I also fancy this match to finish deadlocked.
