NPFL Match Day 38: Abia Warriors Aim Strong Finish as Warri Wolves Fight for Survival in Ozoro

Posted : 24 May 2026

Abia Warriors will conclude their 2025/2026 Nigeria Premier Football League campaign with an away fixture against struggling Warri Wolves at the Southern Delta University Stadium in Ozoro on Sunday. While the visitors have little at stake beyond pride, the home side head into the match under intense pressure as they fight to avoid relegation.

The final round of fixtures carries major implications across the league, with the title race still unresolved and multiple clubs battling to escape the drop. Although two teams have already been relegated, several others remain in danger, making the closing day one filled with tension and uncertainty.

For Abia Warriors, the match presents an opportunity to finish the season on a positive note and potentially spoil Warri Wolves’ survival hopes. The Umuahia-based side also aim to complete a league double over their opponents after winning the reverse fixture 1–0 earlier in the season.

Recent history further strengthens Abia Warriors’ confidence, as they have dominated this fixture in recent years, winning four of the last five meetings between both sides. Despite a season of mixed results, they will still look to end the campaign strongly in front of their supporters.

Warri Wolves, however, face a far more desperate situation. The Seasiders must secure a positive result and hope other outcomes go their way if they are to maintain their NPFL status. Anything less could confirm their relegation.

Abia Warriors will also be without several players due to injury, including Maxwell Kangeshima, Ayodele Ezekiel, Israel Joseph, and Jibrin Faiz, but they still enter the contest with enough quality to challenge their hosts.

With survival on the line for Warri Wolves and pride at stake for Abia Warriors, Sunday’s encounter in Ozoro is expected to deliver a tense and competitive finale to the season.
