Daniel Ogunmodede, the head coach of Remo Stars, has acknowledged that his team’s next two games in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) will be challenging, claiming that they have a difficult journey ahead of them.
With two crucial fixtures on the horizon, Ogunmodede has admitted that an uphill battle is awaiting his side, Footballrover reports.
Who will Remo Stars be facing in their next two fixtures?
Facing Doma United and Plateau United in weeks 30 and 31, respectively, presents intimidating opposition for the Sky Blue Stars.
Ogunmodede emphasises the significance of these encounters, recognising the strength and determination of their adversaries.
Doma United, amidst a recent resurgence, pose a threat despite their previous winless streak.
Having conceded 10 goals in their last 5 NPFL matches, they enter the encounter vulnerable, potentially facing Remo Stars’ firing squad.
Plateau United, harbouring title aspirations, adds further complexity to Remo Stars’ upcoming challenges.
Ogunmodede, however, anticipates a stern test against the ambitious Jos-based club.
Speaking to the club’s media, Ogunmodede acknowledged the gravity of their situation, stating,
“Our next two games in the league will be very tough for us.”
He highlights Doma United’s resurgence, following their crucial victory over Akwa United, signalling the team’s intent to make a statement.
Reflecting on their objectives, Ogunmodede stresses the importance of securing maximum points in both away fixtures.
“Nevertheless, we are aiming to get maximum points in the games,” he concluded.
With Remo Stars currently placed third on the NPFL table with 49 points, every match carries significant implications for their title dreams.
Meanwhile, Doma United is positioned 12 points behind in 12th place, and Plateau United is trailing by just two points in 5th place.
As they brace themselves for these crucial encounters, is it certain that Remo Stars will come out victorious??
