2020/21 NPFL ends with five clubs seeking two tickets, four others fighting relegation

The final matchday will determine the team to join Akwa United in the CAF Champions League.....................................

The position of second-placed Nasarawa United [65 points] of Lafia is under threat and they may miss the chance to join Akwa United in qualifying for the 2021/22 CAF Champions League, while the third-placed team will play in the 2021/22 CAF Confederation Cup.

A win will, however, take them far away from the chasing pack of third-placed Kano Pillars [64 points], fourth-placed Rivers United [63 points], fifth-placed Enyimba International [63 points] and sixth-placed Kwara United [62 points]. But all the five clubs have a chance, provided they win and their nearest rivals lose, with one CAF Champions League ticket and one Confederation Cup ticket at stake.With all five of them playing away, the situation is unpredictable and only those who can grab away wins will pick the tickets to play on the continent.

FC Ifeanyi Ubah and Adamawa United are already relegated, but the other two to join them can be any two of Warri Wolves, Sunshine Stars, Wikki Tourists, and Jigawa Golden Stars.
