Kano Pillars, who have been given a three-match ultimatum due to their poor performance, will welcome bottom-placed Gombe United to the Sanni Abacha Stadium.


With mixed results, the Sai Masu Gida have not been too impressive lately, especially as some other Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) clubs have almost turned them into a whipping team, starting with a 5-0 mauling at the hands of the league's defending champions, Enyimba International, and also suffering 0-1 home losses against Abia Warriors and Shooting Stars of Ibadan.


The club's management, sensitive to the danger lurking ahead, has handed down a compulsory three-match ultimatum to the technical staff and players to improve the club's condition, especially its standing in the NPFL table.


It's unfortunate that the Kano football outfit has only managed one win in their last five outings, with the other four matches ending in defeat.


On the other hand, Gombe United has not fared much better, with two losses and three draws in their last five matches.


While it may seem easy on paper, the Sai Masu Gida will host the Savannah Scorpions at their den in Kano, with the option of securing a straight win given their record from the first leg in the league meeting, where Kano Pillars beat Gombe United FC 5-1 at their famous Pantami Stadium, with 18-year-old wonderkid Abdullahi Yusuf scoring all five goals.


So, on paper, the Sai Masu Gida have a psychological advantage over the visiting Gombe United FC.


Head to head:
Since 2017, Kano Pillars and Gombe United have competed in 7 matches, with Kano Pillars winning 3 times and 1 draw.
