PREVIEW: MD4 – Imperial v Iganmu

Imperial v Iganmu

Saturday, 3rd October, 2026

Imperial Stadium, Odogbolu

10AM

Imperial look to extend their 100% start to the season when they host Iganmu this weekend.

The hosts started the season with two clean sheets but conceded two against Dannaz last weekend. They however held on for a win, with Thompson sealing the victory with an 82nd minute winner, a testament to their resilience so far this season.

They’ll be oozing confidence when they welcome the Tigers this weekend. But that confidence will also be laced with a bit of caution. Coach Franklin’s boys are up against a side that, despite being five spots below them on the log, have outscored them so far this season.

Will Iganmu’s goal-poachers hand Imperial a first defeat of the season? Or, will it be Imperial maintaining their unbeaten start to the season?

STAT ATTACK

Imperial is the only team in the championship with a perfect start so far: 3 wins in 3 outings.

PLAYER TO WATCH

David Aremo (Imperial)

He has scored thrice in his last two outings. Can he continue his scoring streak?
