Remo Stars vs Kano Pillars tips and predictions

Remo Stars have upper hand over Kano Pillars but no value in odds

There's 11 points separating these two as fourth place Remo Stars get set to host 16th place Kano Pillars.

While cognizant of Remo Stars's short price, what happens here is anyone's guess. If you think this is a done deal it is worth a second look. This preview is surely leaning towards a home win and it should be apparent early-doors if that's a bad call. They are still the pick to come through.

So what's been happening in their respective build-ups? Firstly, the hosts have been enjoying the rub of the green in their last 7 home games, winning all of them. Enjoying less success than expected, the travelling side has failed to deliver at times. They've lost 17 of their recent 20 matches on the road. Their backline will be exposed here too.

Recently there's been a lot of complementary commentary about the home side's defence. Rightly so. They've employed effective tactics. They'll see this as an opportunity to keep a clean sheet; they've not been giving things away without a fight. They've only let in 2 goals in their last 20 games at home. Add that to reports that the away side looks fragile in defence. Away from home Kano Pillars have conceded two or more goals in all of their last 3 campaigns. There's another reason to think this will be a home win. Worringly, the visitors have only scored 4 goals in their last 18 away games.

It's always possible that the game doesn't meet expectations due to the favouritism for Remo Stars. The No BTTS could be the best side bet.
