The Ikon Allah Boys are winless in three games after a somewhat decent start to the season, but the recent bad run of form which is majorly attributed to fatigue and blending, is set to be addressed by the Hamza Abara-led Technical Crew starting from this weekend’s encounter against Monday Odigie’s side.

Insurance has conceded just once in six games this season, at Gombe United – this underlines their doggedness and stinginess in terms of goal conceding.

The Benin Arsenal, are, however, yet to score any goal on the road so far this season, their four goals have all come on the home turf.

Tornadoes badly need a win to end a run of bad spells and have to dig deep to grind out the much-needed three points in this weekend’s match-day 8 encounter to move out of the red zone.
