Heartland Queens will look to end their away point drought when they face Dannaz Ladies in the NWFL Premiership matchday 13 at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena (Onikan Stadium) in Lagos Island on Wednesday.
Head-to-Head
The two teams have met three times previously, with each side winning once and one draw. Heartland Queens will be looking to draw from their previous encounters and use their experience to gain their first away point of the season.
Recent Form
Dannaz Ladies suffered a 3-1 defeat to league leaders Edo Queens in their last match, while Heartland Queens drew 1-1 with Remo Stars Ladies. Coach Obi Ogbala will aim to conjure a potent lineup to earn points against the hosts.
Lineup Expectations
Ogbala may field a largely unchanged team, with Amarachi Atulayo in goal and a strong defense featuring Oluomachi Onwere, Nnenna Williams, Ebubechi Ozuruigbo, Prisca Nwachukwu, and Ezinne Wokocha. The midfield options could include Faith Samson, Oluchi Okwara, Chizoba Johnson, and Endurance Omoraka, while the attack will feature captain Chimebere Opara, Emmanuella James, Onyinyechi Kalu, Oluebube Umejiaku, and Blessing Saleh.
Match Significance
A good result will boost Heartland Queens’ morale and shore up their nine points, currently placing them sixth on the eight-team Group A log.
The match promises to be an exciting encounter between two teams fighting for a respectable placement as the regular season nears its end on April 30.
