'Honest' Finidi George moves on after latest NPFL setback for Enyimba
Super Eagles assistant manager Finidi George is looking to boost the morale of his team after Enyimba picked just two points from 12 in the last four matches in the NPFL.
The People’s Elephant has lost two and drawn two of the last four, that’s just two points from a possible 12.
)
Their visitors, United, have fared better but are winless in the last two and conceded four goals in that time.
So, with a lot at stake heading into this tie, both sides will be looking to put an end to their poor run with three points.
But the stakes are against the home side as their visitors are unbeaten in the last four matches against them. Indeed, Finidi George’s men last picked all three points against Plateau two years ago.

This game at Anfield, like the one in Aba, is crucial to both teams despite the point difference between them.
While Arsenal are 29 points ahead of the Kop heading into this one, three points here will see the Gunners breathe better at the top while Liverpool are in danger of missing out on Champions League football next season and cannot afford another dropped point.
)
Arsenal are in better shape heading into this one, with just one defeat in the last five matches while the home side has three of the last four matches.
However, Liverpool have the upper hand in terms of their head-to-head, which should give Jurgen Klopp and his Reds hope. But the last time they met, Mikel Arteta’s fearless Gunners ran away with an intense 3-2 win.
