Remo Stars Stadium

10AM

League leaders, Real Sapphire, will continue their quest for a maiden TCC League title when they face Sporting Lagos.

It’s been an exceptional season for Coach Dan’s boys as they remain the only unbeaten side in the league. Three points clear at the top, maintaining that lead will be the focus this weekend.

But how hard will they be made to work against side that has conceded in only one (out of four) home games this season? Real Sapphire may have managed eight clean sheets this season. However, can they stave off the attacking prowess of a team that has scored seven times in its last two games?

MAN TO WATCH

Demehin Remilekun (Real Sapphire)

For all their efficiency going forward, Real Sapphire getting anything out of this game will depend on Demehin’s goalkeeping heroics.

STAT ATTACK

Sporting Lagos have failed to defeat Real Sapphire in their past three league meetings: 2L, 1D.
