The Lokoja-based attacking football club, Kogi United will tackle Yobe Desert Stars tomorrow at the Lokoja Confluence Stadium by 4pm.
Head Coach of Wada Boys call this “the winning strategy” as he believe the players selected for this important match are capable of getting the first victory of the season.
That determination reflected in the selection of players ready to play host to Yobe Desert Stars on Saturday in Lokoja.
Goalkeeper Detan Ogundare will replace injured Salisu Ogbe who could not shake off a groin injury he suffered against Supreme Court in their Week Two goalless draw last weekend.
Jatau Joseph retained his position as the second safe hand going to the weekend encounter.
No changes in defense as Coach Elijah sticks with the likes of Governor Ernest, Iko James, Sanusi Pedro, Tenimu Abubakar and captain Afolabi Abiodun who did excellently well in Abuja last week.
Few changes made in midfield as both Ademati Kazeem and Nelson Ukwa are set for their start for the Confluence state club, Alex Adamu is also making a return to team after opening day fixtures against Spotlight.
Coach Yomi, the former gaffer of ABS FC said fans, supporters and other well wishers of Kogi United would be thrilled to an entertaining and winning performance from his boys just as he solicited their prayers and support in the match tomorrow.
