Rivers United must win the game to successfully defend the title they won for the first time last season.

Remo Stars, who sit in third position with six points can still topple Rivers United and Enyimba, but they must beat Bendel Insurance with a wide margin.

A draw will however be enough for the Sky Blue Stars to secure a place in the CAF Confederation Cup.

Bendel Insurance must beat Remo Stars
by at least three goals to finish in third position.

Sunshine Stars and Lobi Stars will clash in the first match of the day. The two teams have nothing but pride to play for.
