Enyimba assistant coach Lawrence Ukaegbu has urged his players to be clinical in front of goal when they host Ikorodu City in Sunday’s Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) encounter.
The People’s Elephant head into the match languishing in 18th place on the standings and desperate to recover from last weekend’s 1-0 loss away to Ranchers Bees.

Speaking ahead of the tie, Ukaegbu backed the squad to turn their season around, stressing the importance of home advantage and tactical discipline.
“I am still very much optimistic that Enyimba can make a big push in the league table,” he stated. “Now that we are playing at home, it is very important that we get the support of the home fans.

“Besides, our players must also ensure that they utilise every goal-scoring chance that comes their way and keep a perfect defensive shape against Ikorodu City.”
With the club looking to recover from early-season setbacks, securing maximum points on home turf will be crucial to kicking off their climb away from the lower reaches of the NPFL table.
