Rivers United, ang table leader na may impressive record na 12 wins at 2 losses lang sa season, mukhang favorite, pero ang away form nila ay nagtataas ng serious doubts. Ang guests ay nagre-remis ng hanggang 73% ng mga away matches, at sa last 5 away games, sunod-sunod silang nag-draw ng 5 times. Bayelsa United, kahit 17th place sa table, ay may solid home game na may 38% win rate at 60% possession advantage, pati na mas mataas na xG (1.58 vs 0.99 ng guests). Mahina ang recent form ng both teams – ang hosts ay winless sa last 5 matches, at ang Rivers United ay may 2 losses sa same period. Considering ang malinaw na tendency ng Rivers United na mag-draw sa away, at ang home solidity ng Bayelsa, ang most likely scenario ay draw.
