Bendel Insurance FC will host Enyimba FC at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin, in a key Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) Matchday 25 fixture scheduled for Saturday, February 7, 2026.
Kick-off is set for 4:00 pm, with both teams looking to improve their league standing as the season enters a critical stretch.
Bendel Insurance go into the encounter occupying eighth place on the NPFL table with 34 points. The Arsenal of Benin are coming off a hard-earned 2–2 away draw against Niger Tornadoes, a result that highlighted their resilience and growing consistency, especially on the road.
Enyimba, meanwhile, sit 12th on the standings with 31 points and arrive in Benin boosted by a narrow 1–0 victory over Bayelsa United in their previous outing. A late long-range strike from Samuel Agu sealed the win in Aba, providing the People’s Elephant with renewed confidence ahead of a tricky away test.
With home support expected to play a decisive role, Bendel Insurance will be eager to turn familiarity with their surroundings into a competitive edge and push closer to the league’s top positions.
For Enyimba, the objective is to build on recent momentum and close the gap on teams above them, relying on experience and discipline to navigate a challenging environment.
Separated by just three points, both sides understand the significance of Saturday’s clash. A positive result could prove vital as the NPFL season continues to unfold.
