Saturday 2nd November 

Dipo Dina International Stadium, Ijebu Ode

11AM

4, 3, 2, 2, 2.

That’s the order in which Sporting Lagos have scored their league goals since the beginning of the campaign. Keeping a clean sheet against the Lagosians have been futile for every team they’ve faced this season.

And Valiant could be next in line this weekend.

With a new manager at the helm, the Valiant Boys recorded their first win of the season last week – a 3-2 triumph over Iganmu. Is it the start of a good run thanks to the ‘Managerial Bounce’ effect? Or will it all fade away when they face Sporting Lagos this weekend?

MAN TO WATCH

Olaniyan Gafar (Valiant)

His opening goal set the tone for Valiant’s first win of the season. The new manager will be relying on his versatility again in this game.

STAT ATTACK

Sporting Lagos have scored at least twice in all their league games this season. Rampant.
