Bendel Insurance now turns their attention and strategies to Remo Stars in the Match Day Seven game, scheduled to be held on Saturday, November 4, 2023, at the Samuel Ogbemudia stadium, Benin. Kick-off time is 4 PM.
The Benin Arsenals currently occupy the 9th position with seven points on the NPFL table after playing four matches.
The FA Cup reigning champions started the domestic league on a bright note, on return from CAF Confederations Cup preliminaries, beating Shooting Stars 2-0 and Plateau Utd 1-0 in Benin in the match days two and three.
They suffered a 1-0 loss at Gombe Utd in the following week in the Match Day four encounter at the Pantami Stadium, Gombe before their home match day five goalless draw with Akwa Utd in Benin, last weekend.
Insurance FC, no doubt is thirsty and itching for a return to winning ways as they take on Remo Stars on Saturday.
The Benin Arsenals and Remo Stars met thrice last season with the former having the upper hand. Insurance FC defeated the Ikenne football outfit 3-0 in their first meeting in Benin and pulled a 1-1 draw in Ikenne in the revised fixture, only for the Daniel Ogunmodede-managed Skyblue Boys to pay Insurance back with a 1-0 victory at the season-ending Super Six in Lagos.
