Finidi George, the head coach of Rivers United, is certain that his team would defeat Akwa United on matchday 25.

On Wednesday, the Port Harcourt team will play Akwa United at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo.

Last Saturday, the former champions lost to Enyimba 1-0 in Aba.

Finidi thought Rivers United could have a better outcome this time around after their strong performance in the match.

We will win if we play this style, in my opinion. I am thus quite hopeful,” Enyimba told the club’s press.

“If we can perform the same way in Uyo, I believe we’ll win or at least return with something.” I’m really optimistic.
