**Nasarawa rolls in hot, but Plateau's H2H edge is real** — these two have history, and not the kind that favors the in-form side. 📊

Nasarawa are clicking (3W in their last 5), while Plateau are stuck in neutral with just one win across the same stretch. That said, the head-to-head tells a different story: Plateau hold a **11-6 edge** over 20 meetings, which means this isn't a gimme for the visitors.

Key storylines:

- **Nasarawa's attacking thrust** led by **D. G. Alao** and **L. Ugochukwu** will test **J. Amah** and a Plateau backline that's been leaky (conceded 3 at home to Sporting Lagos)
- **Plateau's midfield battle** — **J. Okechukwu** and **S. Mancha** need to control tempo against **P. Samuel** and **C. Nduka**'s rhythm
- **Home chaos factor**: Plateau's recent draws and losses have all come at home; hostile ground could work either way

Expected lineups:

- **Nasarawa United**: C. Olughu, H. Ebah, A. Odinaka, J. V. Ekioke, A. Abdullahi, P. Samuel, C. Nduka, K. E. Ogbodo, A. Onyemaechi, D. G. Alao, L. Ugochukwu
- **Plateau United**: J. Amah, A. Majalisa, R. Aniako, J. Ambrose, I. Yahaya, J. Okechukwu, S. Mancha, M. Pam, G. Monday, J. Ibrahim, D. Isaiah

Prediction:

**Nasarawa 2-1 Plateau**. Lean to the in-form side, but that H2H keeps it tight. 🔥
