Enyimba FC's quest to revive their NPFL campaign takes center stage on Monday, January 27, 2024, as they face Kwara United in a rescheduled Matchday 16 encounter at the Ilorin Township Stadium. Head Coach Stanley Eguma is determined to chart a new course for the People's Elephant after a disappointing outing in Kano.
Eguma, who recently assumed the reins at Enyimba, has called for a tactical overhaul to secure a crucial victory. Speaking to Enyimba Media, he shared his strategic vision for the match.
“It’s a different ball game. We are going to map out a different strategy,” Eguma stated. “It’s an important game, three points are at stake. We cannot give up now. We will work hard and correct our mistakes to achieve a positive result.”
This match is part of a challenging schedule for Enyimba, who face six games in 12 days, including an intense Oriental derby against Heartland FC as the second stanza begins. Despite the packed calendar, Eguma remains focused on steady progress as the team adjusts to his methods.
“I just joined the team, and with time we will get better,” Eguma said. “The players are still adapting to my style and philosophy. They aren’t bad, but there are areas we need to improve to get better results.”
A victory in Ilorin could provide the momentum Enyimba needs to turn their season around, but Kwara United will not be an easy opponent, as they too are desperate for points.
Kickoff is scheduled for 4 pm at the Ilorin Township Stadium, where all eyes will be on Eguma’s side to deliver a performance worthy of Enyimba’s storied legacy. The People's Elephant knows that anything less than a win will leave little room for error in their campaign.
