History will be made either in Jos or in Maiduguri this Saturday where two surprising teams, Plateau United or MFM FC could emerge as champions of the Nigeria Professional Football League for the 2016/17 season.

It has been a remarkable year for both teams who are gunning for their first ever league title.

While Plateau United are playing in front of their fans in Jos, the task is a bit harder for the Olukoya Boys who are several miles away in Maiduguri to face El-Kanemi Warriors.

PREMIUM TIMES will serve you live updates from both ends as we eagerly await who will be the new champions in Nigeria’s Premier League.

We shall also keep you up to speed on what unfolds in other centers as the battle to avoid relegation is also going to the wire.


Game underway in Jos and Maiduguri but still goalless


We have the first goal in the NPFL final games and it is coming from Calabar where Enyimba have taken a 1-0 lead over Kastina United. Stephen Chukwude’s thunderous header off a Dimgba corner gives the hosts the lead.


CHANCE: Peter Eneji tries a shot but the Rangers keeper make a good save.


In Maiduguri we have a goal … El-kanemi takes the lead .. the job now harder for MFM FC
