“We are going into this match with the mindset of winning,” Megwo told the club’s media.

“We understand it will be a tough game against Shooting Stars, but we are confident in our ability to get the three points.”

While acknowledging the challenge posed by the Oluyole Warriors, Megwo believes his side’s trust in each other will prove crucial as they aim to claim a positive result in the Lion’s Den.

Abia Warriors currently sit 11th on the NPFL table, with 18 points from 14 matches, and will be looking to climb higher with a strong performance in Ibadan.
