the Nigerian Women Football League.
Football
matches involving Bayelsa Queens and Rivers Angels always produce exciting spectacles,
intrigues and glamour in a blockbuster encounter.
Rivers
Angels failed to hit expected heights in their last two away games, picking
only one point on the road but will be looking to bounce back to the summit
when they take on Bayelsa Queens.
Following
their impressive 1-0 win over Edo Queens in Port Harcourt, Angels are fully motivated
ahead of Wednesday game
Rivers
Angels currently sit on third position with seven points on the log while
Bayelsa Queen top the zenith of the women league with eight points and a win
could see the “Jewel of Rivers” go two points clear of their rivalry opponent.
Bayelsa Queens will be approaching the game as revenge, knowing fully that Rivers Angels knock them out of the Aiteo Cup last season to book their spot in the final after it ended 6-2 on aggregate.
It’s
a must win encounter for the Rivers Angels, as any short of three points will
be their undoing for the Edwin Okon led side.
