Legacy Pitch, National Stadium, Surulere 

Gbagada and Broad City face off in a crunch Week 8 matchup. 

The Blue Eagles arrive in mixed form, and have not won back-to-back games this season. Gabriel Sanda was in fine form in their TCC Cup win in midweek, but even his sustained brilliance has not been sufficient to help Coach Akinyelu Olajide’s men in midweek.

Broad City have won one of their last four matches, a stark contrast to the bright two wins from three at the start. The visitors have an issue with closing out games, and it could be an issue against a team notorious for their doggedness defensively. 

 

STAT ATTACK

Gbagada have just one win from their past five TCC League games. Rough Patch

FORM

Gbagada – DLLWL

Broad City – WLWDL

MAN TO WATCH

Coach Akinyelu Olajide (Gbagada)

The coach is under pressure for the first time in three years. Never has his reputation come under question, however, a lack of defensive identity and profligacy in front of goal has raised questions on how he can galvanize his team out of a rut.
