For so many reasons, Doma United FC remains a mystery in the 2023/2024 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season. 


Starting as strong contenders for the league title in December 2023, the club's transformation into a relegation battler is disheartening. 


Late last year, the Gombe state government issued a stern warning to its state-owned club, Gombe United FC, to improve their performance or face abandonment mid-season. This warning was likely influenced by the contrasting fortunes of Doma United FC, which, despite being privately owned, was performing well and competing among the top 3 teams.


Doma United FC and Gombe United FC share the same stadium, Pantami, but their fortunes differ greatly. While Doma United FC, under the leadership of the now-sacked coach Akinade Onigbinde, was thriving, Gombe United was struggling at the bottom of the table despite heavy investment from the state.


However, things took a turn for the worse for Doma United FC in January 2024 when they went 12 matches without a win, dropping from third place to 14th place and leading to the dismissal of their coach.


Since the coaching change, the team's performance has not improved, and they continue to slide towards relegation. In their last five league matches, they have only managed one win, two losses, and two draws.


Doma United's current form is alarming, with only one win in their last 14 matches. They now sit in 15th place on the league table, a significant fall from their position in December 2023.


Kwara United FC, on the other hand, has had a more consistent performance. In their last five matches, they have secured three wins, one draw, and one loss. However, they have struggled in away games, winning only two of their last 24 away matches in the Premier League.


With one outstanding match against Rivers United, Kwara United FC has played 30 league games, recording 9 wins, 12 draws, and 9 losses, accumulating 39 points.


In their only encounter so far, Doma United FC and Kwara United FC played to a draw on December 6, 2023.
