NPFL: Akwa United stay top, Kano Pillars lash Lobi stars, close gap

Akwa United are staying top of the log but have the gap over their closest rivals reduce from four to two points following their drawn game in Jos and Kano Pillars big victory at home.

Monday’s game in Lafia will determine if Nasarawa United will return to second spot from the fourth place they have now been pegged.

Kwara United storm back to relevance as their win over Rangers lift them to third on the table, while Rivers United step down one step to fifth and Enyimba as well as Rangers and Lobi Stars queue behind.

The last four sides remain unchanged – FC IfeanyiUbah, Sunshine Stars, Warri Wolves and Adamawa United.
