Doma United have sent a strong warning to the rest of the EuroMatch Nigeria Premier Football League after beating nine-time champions Enyimba 2-0 on Saturday.

The Savannah Tigers made it three wins from three matches at the Pantami Stadium in Gombe, moving to nine points at the top of the early league table.

Sadiq Rilwan opened the scoring shortly after the half-hour mark, making it three goals in three league matches for the striker.

Yusuf Fantami then scored in the second half to secure another important victory for Doma United.

Even more impressive is their defensive record.

Three matches. Three wins. Nine points. Zero goals conceded.

For a club that many expected to struggle after returning to the top flight, Doma United have quickly become one of the biggest stories of the new season.

But the action continues on Sunday with six more matches.

Lagos Derby Takes Centre Stage

Inter Lagos will face Sporting Lagos at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena in the first-ever top-flight meeting between the two sides.

Neither team has made the start it wanted. Inter have lost their opening two games, while Sporting were beaten 2-0 by Doma United in their first match.

With both sides looking for a big result, Sunday’s 4pm meeting could be the beginning of a new Lagos football rivalry.

Barau Face Ranchers Bees

Barau FC will welcome Ranchers Bees to the Sani Abacha Stadium in Kano.

Barau remain unbeaten after beating Nasarawa United and drawing with Kun Khalifat.

Ranchers Bees, however, have one of the players to watch in Mohammed Rabiu Zulkifilu, who scored the first hat-trick of the season against Abia Warriors.

Barau will be hoping to stop him, while Ranchers will want the striker to continue his impressive form.

Bendel Insurance Target Kun Khalifat’s Unbeaten Run

Bendel Insurance will host Kun Khalifat at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium.

Kun Khalifat have played two matches without scoring or conceding, with goalkeeper Akuchie Obinna keeping two clean sheets.

Insurance will be looking to break that defensive wall, while Kun Khalifat will be aiming for another clean sheet.

Abia Warriors Search for First Goal

Abia Warriors are still looking for their first goal of the season when they host Ikorodu City.

The Warriors have managed just one point from their opening two matches.

Ikorodu City, meanwhile, started with a 3-1 victory over Ranchers Bees.

However, history favours Abia Warriors, with Ikorodu City losing on both previous visits to Abia.

Niger Tornadoes, Plateau United Battle for Momentum

Niger Tornadoes and Plateau United will meet at the Bako Kontagora Stadium in Minna.

Both teams have one win and one defeat from their opening two matches.

Tornadoes beat Enyimba 2-1 before losing 3-2 to Kano Pillars, while Plateau United bounced back from an opening defeat to Rivers United by beating Kwara United 1-0.

Sunday’s game gives both sides a chance to build momentum.

Kwara United Wait for First Win

Kwara United will also be looking for their first victory when they host Katsina United at the Kwara State Sports Stadium in Ilorin.

Kwara have collected only one point from two matches, while Katsina United held Rangers International to a 1-1 draw in their only game so far.

Kwara have a good recent record against Katsina, winning three of their last five meetings.

Three More Matches Still to Come

Matchday Three will not end on Sunday as three fixtures have been postponed because of continental commitments.

Rivers United will host Warri Wolves on September 16 at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium.

Rangers International will face Nasarawa United on September 17 at the MKO Abiola Sports Arena.

Shooting Stars and Kano Pillars will then meet on October 7 at the Lekan Salami Stadium in Ibadan.

For now, however, all eyes are on Doma United.

The Savannah Tigers have made a perfect start, and with nine points from nine and no goal conceded, the newly promoted side have already given the EuroMatch NPFL plenty to talk about.
