NPFL Title Race: Eguma Urges Rivers Utd To Believe

Rivers United coach,
Stanley Eguma has said his team must believe they can beat fellow title chasers Wikki Tourists in Bauchi this weekend.
Rivers United are top of the NPFL standings with 56 points from 33 matches, while Wikki are fourth on 51 points.
Rivers United have only amassed seven points on their travels all season and have failed to score in their last nine games on the road.
But Eguma said his team must produce a big performance against a powerful Wikki side, who are almost peerless at home.
“I cannot predict the outcome of matches before they are played. I rather work towards (getting a positive result from) the game,” he said.
“I recall that when we got our first away win of the season (against Warri Wolves in Warri on May 8), no one expected it.
“I can’t predict what will happen in Bauchi.
“I agree that Wikki Tourists are a good side, but it is possible that they can fall in Bauchi and that is what we are plotting for.
“We have had a week to prepare for the game and we will go to Bauchi to give a good account of ourselves because we know the importance of that game.
“We know what that game will do for our title ambitions so we are not going there for (tourism).
“The fans should know that Rivers United will be giving their best in that game and who knows, we may be coming back with a win.”
