Enugu Rangers maintained their hunt for a ninth Nigeria Premier Football League, NPFL, title with a 2–1 home win over Bendel Insurance on Sunday.

Former goal king Godwin Obaje netted a brace for the Flying Antelopes.

Alex Oweifaleya was on target for Insurance in the game.

Second-placed Rivers United kept the pressure on Rangers with a thrilling 3–2 away win over Wikki Tourists.

Finidi George’s side fought back twice to win the game.

Rangers have 65 points from 37 matches, while Rivers United have recorded 64 points from the same number of matches.

The title will be decided on the final day, with Rangers travelling to Lagos to face Ikorodu City, while Rivers United will host Katsina United in Port Harcourt.

Wikki Tourists were relegated to the Nigeria National League (NNL) following their defeat to Rivers United.

Bayelsa United will also compete in the NNL next season after going down 2–1 to Remo Stars in Ikenne.
