The 'Solo Boys' will be looking to redeem their image following another disappointing goalless draw at home versus Cynosure FC when they face Nnewi United in a NNL Matchday 5 ecounter bid to take centre stage at Oba Stadium in Onitsha.
On the back of three round of league games, coach Oadunni Oyekale team is yet to find the back of the net this season in the five week old Nigeria National league and will be looking forward to right their wrongs when they trade tackles with Nnewi United away from home in a midweek fixture.
The Lagos based team would be yearning to get their first goal of the season and hopefully pick up all three points at Nnewi.
NNEWI UNITED have also had mixed fortunes playing at home this season. Winning just one and playing out a goaless draw against Crown FC in their first game.
Despite losing narrowly in their last match at Omoku against Go-Round, the away goal recorded will serve as a motivating factor when they host Ottasolo on Wednesday.
