Here are the top four picks in this weekend's NPFL games.

Shooting Stars vs Enyimba: old enemies renew rivalry

The Lekan Salami Stadium in Ibadan hosts an intense clash between Shooting Stars and Enyimba on Sunday.

This match pits two giant clubs in the league, with a rich history of rivalry.

Enyimba are looking to build on their good form, having defeated Shooting Stars at home last season.

Although Shooting Stars have not been fantastic this season, recording just one win, the Oluyole Warriors have promised to make a meal of the People's Elephant.

Their last home match ended in a draw, while Enyimba's last away match resulted in a defeat.

Sunshine Stars vs Rangers: title defense at stake

Rangers visit Sunshine Stars in Ijebu, looking to revitalize their title defense.

The Rangers have struggled to score, scoring just four goals in five games.

The problems of their continental campaign persist and scoring goals is a major challenge.

Sunshine Stars have scored five goals and conceded four.

The Rangers have four clean sheets, while the Sunshine Stars have managed two. Can Rangers find their scoring form against Sunshine Stars?

Amokachi Lobi Stars

Niger Tornadoes vs Lobi Stars: Amokachi's first test

The Niger Tornadoes welcome Lobi Stars, now under new coach Daniel Amokachi, in the Northern derby.

Amokachi aims to turn around the poor form of Lobi Stars, who are currently 17th in the table.

Lobi Stars last defeated Tornadoes at home in 2022.

Amokachi looks to recreate this victory and start his tenure on a positive note.

Akwa United vs Kano Pillars:

Ahmed Musa was conspicuously absent as the Super Eagles cruised to a one-goal victory over Libya at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo on Friday.

However, the pacey winger may feature when Pillars take on Akwa United at the same venue this weekend.

Musa marked his return with two goals last weekend and many are expecting more from the Super Eagles star.

Akwa United's stadium has lost its fortress status, with its last two matches ending in a draw and defeat.

Kano Pillars have only managed one point away from home this season.

In their 24 matches, Akwa United have 10 wins, Kano Pillars nine and five draws.

Will Musa's possible presence inspire Kano Pillars to victory?

The weekend's matches promise exciting encounters that will shape the NPFL table.
