Enyimba forward, Ekene Awazie, is determined to help his team secure a victory when they travel to face Bayelsa United in a Matchday 10 fixture of the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) this Sunday.
The People’s Elephant start will start the matchday in third place, four points behind table-topping Rivers United and Awazie and his teammates know they have to stay within touching distance of the top-two sides above them if that ambition of a 10th title must be realized.
The former FC Ifeanyiubah and Remo Stars man has been a key player for the People’s Elephant in the attacking setup, making seven league appearances and scoring once.
Awazie is confident that Enyimba can get a positive result in Yenagoa.
“We know it won’t be easy playing against Bayelsa United away from home, but we are ready for the challenge,” Awazie said.
“We have been working hard in training, and we are determined to get a positive result in Yenagoa. We respect Bayelsa United, but we are confident in our ability to play good football and win the game.”
A positive result in Yenagoa against Bayelsa United would be a significant boost to their title aspirations this season.
