Premier League former kings Kano Pillars otherwise called Sai Masu Gida will this afternoon at Muhammadu Dikko Stadium in Katsina test visiting Sunshine of Akure for size
The encounter is in continuation of the country’s top fiilght which entered week six
This is a must win duel for the Kano side having gone two matches without a point
This is not pretty good for team like Pillars who holds the most incredible home record in the whole of Africa having gone two hundred and two encounters without testing defeat until Nasarawa United shattered the invincibility
Thus,the pressure now lies on Captain Rabiu Ali Pele led team to the needful aimed at making the team followers happy
Delightfully enough the club has been boosted with the arrival of Super Eagles Captain Ahmed Musa and his bossom friend Shehu Abdullahi which will surely ginger the rest of team in view their experience and position in the round leather game and thus added impetus to Coach Usman Abdullahi who is trying wholeheartedly to justify the confidence reposed on him by the Government
On the other hand, Gaffer Kennedy Boboye side that travelled from far away Akure will not fold their arms and allowed the club to be thrashed easily as the Kano team are playing away from their
natural ground and looking at how the Akure side walloped Abia Warriors at their home soil in Umuahia last week in front of their fans
Justifiably as soccer is unpredictable, anything can happen in the course of the cracker particularly at this time that match officiating is improving
It is our utmost hope the spirit of sportsmanship will be adhered to during the battle
Kick off is at four o’clock local time
