2025/2026 NPFL Matchday 19: Warriors Set to Test Enyimba’s Resolve in Aba

Posted : 28 December 2025

As the first stanza of the 2025/2026 Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) season comes to a close, all eyes turn to Aba, where Enyimba International FC will take on Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) in a high-profile South-West/South-East derby on Sunday.

The Matchday 19 encounter is scheduled for a 4:00 pm kickoff at the Enyimba International Stadium and marks the final fixture of the year for both teams. Enyimba, fondly known as the People’s Elephant, head into the clash determined to bounce back from a disappointing 3–2 defeat away to El-Kanemi Warriors on Matchday 18.

The nine-time NPFL champions currently sit 9th on the league table—an unfamiliar and uncomfortable position for a club of their stature. A positive result on Sunday would not only restore confidence but also keep them within striking distance of the top six.

Shooting Stars arrive in Aba buoyed by a morale-boosting 2–1 home victory over Niger Tornadoes in Ibadan. The Oluyole Warriors are currently 6th on the standings and will be eager to consolidate their position in the top half as the league moves into its second phase. Known for their resilience on the road in big matches, 3SC will be confident in their ability to challenge the Aba faithful.

With pride, momentum, and crucial points at stake, Sunday’s showdown promises a fiercely contested encounter, marked by intensity, tactical discipline, and a charged atmosphere. Aba is set to witness another exciting chapter in one of the NPFL’s enduring rivalries as both sides aim to finish the year strongly.
