Not-so-newcomers to the TCC start off their league campaign against Dino SC. This Gameweek 1 fixture is a repeat of the TCC Cup clash between both sides last month.

For both sides, nothing less than three points will do as they seek the perfect start to the second season of The Creative Championship league. For the home side however, they will head into this one with their 2-1 loss to Dino (in December) fresh on their minds.

Despite scoring the first goal of the clash (in the first minute of the game), they succumbed to pressure from Dino and eventually lost the game. While it’s redemption time for Dannaz, Dino will be looking to go two better than they managed last season and finish top of the table by the end of the season.

Having conceded the least goals last season (11), finding the net will be the priority for Coach Gibson’s men. And a Dannaz that has failed to keep a clean sheet in its last four games is the perfect test for Dio

STAT ATTACK

Dannaz failed to keep a clean sheet in all of their last four games. Porous.

MAN TO WATCH 

Ikechukwu Friday (Dino)

With four assists to his name from last season, Ikechukwu will be looking to help push his team to even greater heights this season, starting with the first game of the season.
